Discussion on basic Reefkeeping

[Tanzy]

Hey guys!

I'm wondering if any of you are interested in a discussion on beginner reefkeeping. There are a couple of questions that keep coming up in this forum and some of them are very hard to explain well by typing alone, so I think it would be a better idea to talk about it face to face. It won't be a lecture, seminar or tutorial, just a few guys getting together and talk. It is not Q&A because I don't think there is a person of authority to answer all the questions, more of sharing experiences and ideas.

No registration fee. Informal meeting over tea or something. Aimed at beginners but more experienced reefers are encouraged to participate and share.

Now that I've put the idea to you guys, hopefully someone will organise this. (not me )

Any suggestions? Who's on for it?

[Anthony]

hmm .... count me in if there is any discussion

[harlequin]

Brings back memories of those days when I used to hang arond Funan Centre during the early days of BBS (before Internet became a common thing).

Sure...its a good idea and we can all meet say at a particular cafe on sat or sun afternoon and drink kopi and talk reef (definately not luohans).

No invitations required and anyone can come.

For a start, we can do it at Funan Centre Coffee Bean this sunday.

But we need an organiser and definately not me !

I would very much like to join in.

But I got a 10 days old baby girl to take care of at the moment .

I shall see if I can sneak out once the date and time is fixed.

hmmm....what story should I cook up for my wife

[Tanzy]

Bring your girl and we can decide which is the best milk powder mix for her with regard to solubility and trace elements. Maybe if we have time we can also see if RO/DI water is superior over boiled tapwater for mixing the milk.

[onghm]

my girl is on natural seawater with all the natural goodness ....if u know what i mean

[Tanzy]

I heard it is pretty bland compared to cow.

[X_Japan]

[eprouve]

Errr... ong, Seawater? I'd stick to milk. Natural human or cow...

I'll be interested to join you guys, but I can't confirm if I'm available on 28. We'll see.

I'll watch this space for confirmation details.

[Achilles Tang]
