Don't miss our next meeting!!

***The Meeting Date is Saturday April 14, 2018 at 5pm at the Lutz Children's Museum in Manchester, CT.***


We'll be discussing fish that act as work horses cleaning our aquariums as well as the snails, crabs, and other inverts that consistently clean-up our tanks.

Shoot, got roped into working tomorrow until noon, then heading back home to meet up with a friend. Not sure I want to make the hour+ drive to Windsor, up to Northampton, then down to Manchester for the meeting. Maybe I'll be there if my friend feels like making the drive to check out the meeting.


Coincidentally, I have been considering putting togeter a club cleanup crew group buy if the rock in my new tank ever stops spewing ammonia and finishes cycling.
 
Not sure if anyone will read this prior to going to the meeting but I could really use some pest free macroalgae cheap or free...
Thanks
