Our next meeting is in the "Barrel Room" at Fate Brewing Company in south Scottsdale, and will take place from 2-4PM.

The agenda for this meeting:

• Opening announcements
• Let's Play: Reef Trivia!
• Raffle
• Coral Auction

We have something new this time, and we'll debut a round of Reef Trivia! @sisterlimonpot has mad scientist a custom wireless buzzer system for us, and we'll have 8 teams of players. There will some sort of award to the winners, but mostly the questions will be general knowledge and hopefully helpful to those newer in the hobby.

We've also generously received a raffle prize from Octo Aquatics: An O'Reily size "The SHU" acclimation box ($120 retail value!) https://octoaquatics.com/product/the-shu/


Any registered club member can attend and bring their corals/frags to sell in the auction. We do ask that each member bring no more than 20 items, and they must be listed here in this thread by 10PM Friday the 20th. Please provide a line description and a starting bid. Pictures are helpful if you have them! The auction list will be compiled later and be posted on Saturday.

If you are not currently registered with AZ FRAG, please see our website: azfrag.org

If you have any questions about the meeting please reply to this thread and ask!
We look forward to seeing everyone again!

I need to trim up some, can’t guarantee it’s pest free but yours if you want it.

I’ll be bringing a a couple frags of
Gsp
Finger leather
Mint green sps of some sort
Grafted monti cap
And a green leather that I haven’t had luck with in my tank, hopefully someone else will have better luck with it

All free to good home, if you want to pitch in a couple bucks for container costs that would be great but not necessary.
