Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.

Well we finally switched out tanks yesterday, much to my relief!! Many thanks to Ethan and Will from AO and Stan(Smcooler) and everybody else who helped. Mike (MNAT) did an amazing job of drinking beers and eating our food!! Everything went as smooth as it possibly could have.
I am re-doing my tank this Sunday and will be going bare-bottom. I will have about 80lbs of sand that is 2 years old and will need to be cleaned and rinsed thoroughly. Its free as long as you bring buckets and are here sunday around 3:00 to get it or else its going in the trash. Its Carib-sea...
This is in my wifes tank at her office, it has outgrown her tank. Its about 12" high so needs to go in a large enough tank. Its beautiful.
Please bring a bucket and be prepared to get it out of the tank yourself. Its attached to a softball sized piece of LR which can go to. Thanks.
