GHAC North Side Tank Tour -- 3/24

[Totenkampf]

cool looking forward to it, hopefully my sitter wont have a last minute sickness/date that she had going on last weekend.

[mnemenoi]

We have kids and they are more then welcome at our place at least, have been looking forward to meeting you. I grew up in Grangerland so I'm very familiar with the Porter area, especially any with great tank tastes!!!!

[eklikewhoa]

I really don't care to host since my scheduling is not so set in stone but if there isn't enough stops I will try to move things around and add my name to the hat if anyone cares to see my tanks.

[mnemenoi]

Cool Deal, I have 2 confirmed and myself thus far. I'll hit you up once I get a better idea and give everyone a day to respond and I can hammer out a schedule.

[Totenkampf]

oh yeah? i dated a couple cousins of the grangers and met the family. i wish i could say it was a pleasant meet. thanks for the offer, my girl would love to come i am sure but i dont think my sons wireless ps3 controller reaches that far lol

[eklikewhoa]

aite cool.

I'll send you my addy so you can somewhat plan around it to get an idea if it'll even be worth the stop and closer to the weekend I'll confirm if needed.

[Totenkampf]

oh and if anyone going on the crawl has any branchy manzanita or grapevine branches (think bonsai) and / or seiryu type small stones (for the base of the bonsai) that would be good for a centerpiece in a 21" x 12" x 17" aquarium then I am buying! also assassin snails...theres been a MTS sighting where I dont want one!

No manzanita, no extra Seiryu, but we have as many assassin snails as you want and will thank you for taking them...

[Totenkampf]

lol, somehow i knew you would offer those! it will be much appreciated as long as they dont eat my nerites (cuz the interwebs says they wont)

[mnemenoi]

I personally have never had them attack any snail larger then themselves (and all said they are fairly small), but your welcome to them if you'd like...

[Totenkampf]

yessir! thats what i read as well, altho i did read a couple accounts of several ganging up on tylos...but nerites dont spend too much time down on the substrate where they are vulnerable.

[mnemenoi]

I had some sizable tylo's in with them quite some time ago and they did fine, but they were 3"+. They don't appear to be able to attack them unless they can overwhelm the opening area and extract the other snail. I can concur that they in no shape eat plants and they do like to burrow. Mine have been cultivated in a 10 gallon planted tank for 3+ years.

If you get him the new psp they have been advertising he can play his game from anywhere just about.

[Chris.d514]

If anyone happens to have any beginner level plants or plant clipping and is going to be on the tour I could really use some for setting up a new tank.

[Totenkampf]

I just culled my extra plants for my mom and sister but i will double dose excel tomorrow for ya!
