The September 2014 meeting was held at the lovely home of 3 1/2 year member, Phil H.
In attendance were:
Jerry S Jim L Laurie S Pete B Ross A |
Darek K Phil H Kara VK Khanh T Adrian M |
After a late start, Jerry called the meeting to order then proceeded to engage the group in a delightful discussion regarding substrates. Many areas surrounding the topic were explored including it’s purpose, nutrients and composition, different types of substrates as well as the pros and cons of each, recommended methods of starting up and much more.
A treasury report was given and all participated in the usual plant swap. Ross was welcomed to the club as this was his first meeting attended.
Khanh spoke briefly about the driftwood that was made available to the group.
A good portion of the meeting was spent re-scaping a section of Phil’s tank,
as well as engaging in numerous other plant and fish related conversation and engorging ourselves in the amazing food provided by the host and others.
The November meeting will be held in Ringwood NJ, exact date to be determined.
