    AFA Meeting January 2012

    Post by joefish72 on Wed Dec 28, 2011 11:58 am

    Ok folks, the next meeting will be on Friday January 13th (ooooohhh, Friday the 13th).

    Lets make it 6:30pm at my house in San Carlos Park (all children are welcome)
    18481 Narcissus Road
    Fort Myers 33967
    You can show up a little late for all those that are working. I'll make dinner if I have more than 10 people coming and food will hit the table at 7pm. I'd like to see some of the new forum members so be sure to reach out and bring a friend. Wholesale buying opportunity for livestock, equipment, foods and meds to all people who attend.

    I will do a demo on how to make your own lighting fixture. This will be an exact demo of my DIY lighting fixture you can find in our DIY section. This is also helpful if you have a broken fixture because you will know how the electronic ballasts work and are wired. I'll also go over some myths about lighting fixtures and bulbs. One lucky member gets to take the completed fixture home FREE!!!

    For all new members: Membership is free and we welcome enthusiasts of all levels. If you just have a single betta in a jar or a 50 tank fish room everyone is invited and welcome to offer advice or ask questions.

    Yep, all of the above. We swap ideas, bring stuff to trade, talk about new products or things we are currently in search of.

    I'm not "bringing anything" since all my stuff is here already. If anyone has a special request let me know, my live fish order goes in on Monday and I'll have it in my tanks by Friday.

    I have some kind of plant that is growing like crazy, maybe got it from you, have plenty to share.

    Have a 110 gallon oceanic tank, stand, canopy, and lights, if it's not sold by then.

    If Ladia makes it (provided nobody calls with a tank emergency), he should be bringing some cichlids.

    I plan on coming as well!

    I have 2-3 month old molly fry that I'd be willing to sell or trade. They're the half black/half gold variety. A dozen of them are already spoken for, but I'll have at least another dozen available.

    Also, I'll have 20ish 2-3 month old guppy fry as well. Gender is determinalbe. The males especially are of "pet quality." Some of the females are colorful, some are not. These were originlly bred for my turtle and these are the ones that grew up and are now too big for her to eat. Would be willing to sell or trade for pet or feeder purposes.

    Things I am looking for include: Any swordtails, male platy, female bristle nose plecos, and BLIND CAVE FISH/Mexican cave fish.

    I look forward to the meeting and meeting everyone : )
