I’m only the Cedar Falls / Waterloo trustee. You can contact the Cedar Rapids trustee to ge the par meter for that region.

 

Got my 'Cedars' mixed up! Yes, Kendall is for Cedar FALLS/waterloo. @aussie is for Cedar RAPIDS/Iowa City. Their is a separate forum for Cedar Rapids/Iowa city

No idea if this is the right thread or what, but I could really use the Par meter for a day or two if possible. How do I go about doing that?

 

Yes - this is the correct thread. Currently @cameron lake has it - and is planning to return it I think on Sunday.

The list then is
@pwfish
@Chuckles

We ask that people pick it up and return it in a week - so that others can use it.

 

I would also like to get in line for the par meter please

 

@Barrett - I've got you added to the list after @Chuckles

 

The par meter is with Paul - @pwfish now. He should be finished with it in a few days. @Chuckles - your will be up next.

 

Woo hoo

That is awesome.

 

@Chuckles - I have the Par meter back from Paul. Its ready for you to pick up.

 

@Barrett - @Chuckles picked the par meter up on Wednesday evening. I expect it back in a few days. You are up next.

 

Sounds good @beckerj3 let me know when you have and I will setup a time with you to pick it up, I haven’t been out to see your tank in awhile anyways.

 

@Barrett - I've got the par meter. I sent you a PM a couple days ago, but not sure if you received it. When would you like to come and get it?

 

So I work at our local zoo here BPZ and would be interested in borrowing the par meter for a coral research project we are working on. How can I check it out?

 

The par meter is available for checkout by club members. I will discuss with the board of directors about loaning it out to the zoo. Please provide additional details regarding the project: what is the project, when would you like to use the par meter, and for how long. Generally we loan the par meter out for a week.

 

thank you for getting back to me. We are working on a coral restoration project where we are studying the speed at which different species of coral grow, spawning, and coloration due to a variety of diets.

All our coral comes directly from a Florida research company and we, along with other zoos are helping out with the research.

We are wanting to use the parameter to test our lighting in our coral holding trays as well as other exhibits at our zoo.

 

Am generally in favor of loaning out equipment to education groups but think there need to be understandings on the terms of the loan. Coral trays should not take too long and are ok with me but want are the other exhibits? And how long? If the zoo needs them that seems to me to be a long term need for them.

 

I would say a max of three days no longer than that.

 

I expect to get back to you with an answer later this week.
