Hey Rich how are those Piwo's doing? Any fry yet?

[RichT]

Hey Rich how are those Piwo's doing? Any fry yet?

Had wigglers in the main tank. Now I'm getting them ready to split up in a few weeks.

[shawnhu]

My Red's I got from our NEDA meet over a year ago spawn a couple weeks ago. They actually tended to the eggs, but they all started tuning white after 24 hours or so. I suppose the male is not doing his thing. This is in a community tank too!

[DonMD]

Hey, Jim, it looks like we're making a weekend visit to my son's place in Hartsdale, NY, so I'll most likely be able to swing by for the NEDA meeting. What can I bring?

[jimg]

Hi Don Glad to hear that!!! maybe soda, wine or whatever you like to drink

[jimg]

just a note. I plan on getting a wedge, beer, soda and my wife making some salads and probably anther dish or so. There should be enough but if anyone wants to bring something small I'm sure it won't get wasted. I don't drink or buy wine so if anyone likes it enough feel free to bring some. Do not worry about what to bring, we'll get by!

[DonMD]

Sounds good, see you there.

[brewmaster15]

Jim,
I'll bring a bottle of red wine, chips , homemade salsa, and a crock pot of chili.

I'm originally from Larchmont,N.Y. and I would venture that nobody up in the CT. New England area where I live has any idea what a wedge is . I'm assuming your talking Italian Grinder, sub,ect. Count me in . I will bring some beer and some other dish.

Really, that makes negative 2 for Peter. You must have seen him fingering all those tickets after the drawing, wondering, where is mine ? ? ? It must be in here somewhere! LOL.

Great time, Jim, thanks for hosting! Beautiful home, great company, excellent conversation. Great to put some names to faces. -Don

[PAR23]

Jim, next time I come over I want the canopy/garage for my car. I will get even with that cardinal.
