New Seattle Cichlid Club's First meeting

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Drool at Mel's 1000 gallon, and two 600 gallon CA/SA tanks. Ha.

This meeting is the first so I think mostly we'll go over starting a club. Meeting and etc.
 
Any of you peoples in the Central Washington area?
 
If you guys want to go and didn't get the email with Mel's address let me know and I'll get it to you. The meeting is Thursday, January 21st at 6:30.

As for what's in the 1000 gallon tank I'm not sure, because it wasn't set up last time I was there but I think it contains festae, umbee, and other awesome CA cichlids.
 
Mel also has the most bad as dovii ever, fricking thing hits the tank and sounds like a baseball bat hit it! i dont think i could punch as hard as that dovii hits.
 
If the dovii went in the 1000 gallon he'd end up with just a pair of dovii in a 1k gallon tank. Ha.

600 gallons for a dovii pair is pretty good as is!
 
Here ya go people who missed it!

Big thanks to Mel for putting it on at his house. We had a decent turn out of 13 for the Washington Area Cichlid Club.

First off, some of the fish from the smaller tanks.

ornatum (very hard to photograph, quite skittish and right next to the dryer, as you can see in the reflection)
