    OK, I'll bring a few more. I also have tons of orange ricordea. It's not bright orange. I'd say its more of a peach color. It's the ricordea from Bullet's tank. I'll bring some of that in case anyone wants that too.
    I wish I still had the pink ricordea to bring as well, but it was overrun by the green in the great ricordea wars of '07.

    Thanks for hosting the meeting.  I thought it was a good discussion.  Hope we can keep it going!!
    Also thanks Joel for testing my water for magnesium and Chris for the salinity test.  As for magnesium - I'd like to try to make the magnesium supplement from Randy's formula.  Can I purchase the magnesium component locally?  If so, where?  Also I'm going to need a magnesium test kit.  Recommendations????
    Haven't got to the salinity issue yet.  But plan to review the calibration document.

    I'm planning to join the tour in Ankeny.  Are we meeting at Menard's parking lot about 1:00 - or at Ryan's house at 1:00 ???
    Dave - I won't be able to stay for the cookout.  But sounds like its going to be good food.
