It's a little early to set it in stone for me, but I plan on being there

ohioreef · « **Reply #4 on:** May 23, 2011, 10:40:37 »

ooo....another close one!!

Reefpete · « **Reply #5 on:** May 24, 2011, 16:56:03 »

Thank you for posting the date early. That makes it easier for me to attend. Count me in on this one!

Reefpete · « **Reply #6 on:** June 01, 2011, 19:29:09 »

If I were to bring a tank and tap water sample is there anyone who wouldn't mind running some tests for me? I have a the beginnings of a real test kit, but its not complete. I would like to also know (again, if possible) how horrible my tap is. So I can build a RO/DI that is most efficient for my beginner budget. Thank you

slandis3 · « **Reply #7 on:** June 01, 2011, 20:00:03 »

I have a tds meter here we can use to test your water.

Does anyone that is attending (without a doubt) have strong cordless fastener gun (drill) that they wouldn't mind donating for a few hours? I will be building the skeleton of my stand, and will be using 3" coated decking screws. I don't foresee them driving in that easily. Thank you

Unless your driving 3" screws into Oak, you will be just fine with that. That 1/2" cordless drill will drive that screw all the way through pine if you let it.

Thank you to Cody for giving me a lift there and back, also for the good company. You to Chris!

Lazylivin, thanks for the macro. Also for taking the time to ask how things were coming and the interest in my setup details. Brother, I really hope you find another way around your phosphate issue. Short of replacing your rock!

Micki, thank you for the dry rock. Also for doing me a solid favor with the sand order.

It was great to meet everyone, and as stated before, great to put faces with names finally. Looking foward to next months gig. Hint hint Mike
