First off I would like to thank Ken for allowing and making this happen and extend my thanks to Mzungu for helping me get in contact with Ken.
At our last meeting Me and HoustonFishFanatic brought up the idea to start posting on HFB to open the doors to more new memebers along with spreading the knowledge since we both are member here and noticed the increase of interest in the planted aquarium. After getting a hold of Ken it has now happened and as a member of N.A.S.H. I am really excited about all this because two cool things I am a part of have merged.
John a.k.a. Ajax is the president of N.A.S.H. and should be coming along shortly to introduce himself and speak a bit more about the club but till then I will do my best.....
From what I have gathered in the meetings I have been to and speaking with the members at and away from the meetings, NASH is a local club that is geared towards the knowledge of plants, planted aquarium, aquascaping, plant specifics but basically a Nature Aquarium. Another thing that I thought was cool is that everyone is really friendly and willing to help with problems or when you just need another's opinion. Also the club members are knowledgeable with lots of rare/hard to keep alive plants so that helps when you want that really pretty plant but just can't seem to keep it alive. The aquascaping side of it all is really good too for those that want to step to the next level after achieving plant growth in the tank which is what most all is drooling over with Takashi Amano changing the way everyone sees a planted tank.
There are great things planned as well like collection trips in search of Native plants and having members that are really fluent in the emersed state of aquatic plants as well as identification of those plants. There is also plant swaps that usually happen at each meeting or when we want to get together but have no real topic like we did this last meeting/gettogether where some rare or new to you sp. of plants are offered to those that want to try it.
Again thank you Ken for making this happen and would like to extend the welcome NASH has gotten to all the members of HoustonFishBox!
