Re: GHAC "Swap n Sell" Updated

awww sorry michael, i loved all the fish i got, not a single loss even though they had to wait at work till around 7 ish. thats when i got them into tanks. the rack in my bedroom is now officially full. i got a bunch of the smaller fish in the 20 long with a sponge filter and a hob with filterpad over the intake, because its final stage will be as a fry tank. but all the ameca spendens, and tequila goedids are very happy, i have to ask jughead what fish i got from him again. i had it in my mind and my coworker got bit by a dog real bad right when i walked in the door and i forgot about everything i was thinkin. . He had to go get a rabies shot too, those are not fun, i hope to never have to get one.

Yeah I loved the event :)   I think it was prolly the most successful event GHAC has had in its young life :)
I was so happy to see a ton of people there and even though I walked away with only a few items I had a blast.

... we should have one in the fall .. I am thinking sometime in Oct / November when it cools off a little.   I am thinking the next big event should go next and then we should have a swap and sell in Oct / Nov again, when we can all stand outside and not melt.

I am thinking we should vote for a Sunday meet so those people who work on Saturday can get to come too :)

just my 2c

Re: GHAC "Swap n Sell" Updated

I was planning on going to the swap except I mixed up the date and time with the monthly meeting.  I was at Delock's condos looking for fishfreaks and geeks but I found none.  

Eventually, I realized what hapened and went home.  I was so excited to go to the swap and get some plants.  boohoo.  I even brought a guest, other than me, my son.  He's only 6 months old but he loves sitting next to my 55g tank and looking at the fishy fish swim by and stare at him.  Come to think of it, I haven't been able to think straight (or get any sleep) in the past 6 months.  Maybe theres a connection there?

In the end, I was more disappointed than he was.  Are there any plants around?  Driftwood?  Glass covers (2) for my 55g?

Hey, was that you that tried to call me?  I got the voicemail this morning...sorry.  I had my phone charging and was involved with family stuff.

greg_tsam - I have some spare pieces of glass that you can have that should cover a 55 gallon aquarium as long as there is a brace in the middle. Sorry about the confusion.

Thanks to everyone who could make it. Fiona and I enjoyed seeing old faces and meeting new ones.  :)

Re: GHAC "Swap n Sell" Updated

Thanks, Tim I do have a brace in the middle.  And, yes, Raul, that was me.  lol.  Sorry to bother you.  I felt a little foolish afterwards. Oh well.  Sometimes we all have to play the fool.  Reminds me of a song I once knew.

I second that. I never get Saturday off unless I have a funeral or go on Vaction. :(  Or if Christmas falls on a Saturday. Darn Job! :evil:

Re: GHAC "Swap n Sell" Updated

I had a great time, as well! Thanks again, Tim and Fiona!

It was hot, but I think that their backyard was an ideal place in such weather - lots of shade!

I'll post picks in a little bit, but I just wanted to ask (for the record): Where is this "post" everyone was talking about, the one where I said I would be bringing snails? Huh?!?
