Dr Mac down the shore!

Hey everyone,
I'll be holding NJRC's May meeting at my house on Sunday, May 21st at 1:00 pm. As I see lots of NY tags in the Cape May area, I figured some of you may make it down this way at times. Feel free to drop by if your in the area. More information can be found here: http://www.njreefers.org/forums/index.php/topic,1029.0.html

Ah.......bump?

Rich, hi, why not copy your first post of your thread here. I think it would get more interest than the link. people are lazy, lol

I know I'm posting a little early but with Mothers Day the 14th and Memorial Day the 29th, it is only logical that the May meeting be the 21st. So mark you calendars now!

Dr Mac has agreed to speak at the meeting so I'll be firming up that date with him as well. I'd also like to organize a group buy from him to coincide with the meeting (with Hef's blessing of course) so make some room in your tanks too. At the very least, we should be able to eliminate the shipping but we'll see what else we can work out as well.

Also, I'll do a quick acrylic-working demo if anyone is interested and time allows (provided I can get the garage cleaned up by then ) so ask if you want to see anything specific, as long as I know how to do it of course.

And finally, I'll have my new 20' x 40' display and 9' x 9' high-flow nano, chlorinated freshwater tanks open for your (or your kids) enjoyment as well.

Hope to see you all there!!!

I was unexpectedly at Dr. Mac's on Monday and spent some time talking to him. (yes, and buying some nice stuff too) He was getting ready to leave for the Solomon Islands to visit the new marineculture coral farm he has invested in. He will be documenting the trip and process while there which will be part of his overall presentation.

We also discussed the group buy. The likely scenario will be; a week or so before the meeting, we will receive a coupon code to be used on the check out page of his web site. This coupon will *flag* your purchase to be held and brought to the meeting free of shipping charges. Although we didn't discuss the specific detail, he did mention something about special pricing as well. More details to follow on that. IMO, if we were able to provide some type of approximate budget number of what we're likely to spend, that would help set the discount. So, if everybody goes to his site at: http://www.pacificeastaquaculture.com/ and see whats available now (which may not be available at the time of the group buy) then post what you may / will / probably spend, then we could get an approximate number to the Dr.
