Re: [GSAS-board] shrimp panel



I personally love Bee shrimp.  I did see them one in Renton for 99c.  I would bid on them or take them home as a door prize.  Dinner traditionally starts at 6 to give enough time to eat and go.

Meredith,

 

I think Thai food is a pleaser for everyone.  I had not even considered the dinner part of this.  What time does that take place?  I'll let the other guys know too.

 

I think the fish of the month gives some focus to the auction plus can constantly engage the membership in species they may not have considered.  It seems shrimp would be a great choice for this month's Fish Of The Month.

 

I let Jimmy know someone other than I would be contacting him regarding a bulk shrimp purchase.  In case you don't have it, his email is jimmykwlo@yahoo.com and 206-227-6752.  I suggest Amanos, Tigers, Orange and Bee, assuming we will have folks bringing Cherries from within the club.  They won't reproduce in the tanks likely but they sure will get people excited.

 

As far as a second door prize, I am donating 6 pieces of Cuttlefish Bone that you could use for that if you wish.  I suggest them being given/raffled in lots of 2.

 

Cheers,

 

Shango

do you want Thai food or something else?
and any more thoughts on "fish of the month" possibilities?
what about a club-purchased gift certificate for Jimmy's store? $20?
maybe as a second door prize

Dear Board Members,

 

If you would confirm for me that the folks on the Shrimp Panel are Jimmy Lo, Cliff Miller and myself, I will pick up the coordination between us regarding who is talking about what.  I very much have a vested interest now and feel the motivation to get everybody in line so we have a successful event.  Again, I am coordinating content only...based loosely on Paul suggested outline below that we all seemed to like.

 

Please confirm.

 

Thanks

 

Shango

Dear Board,

 

 

I have a windfall of a couple of minutes here and would like to put my ideas of for comments.  Please feel free to disagree or comment;

 

·         I see 4 speakers (KEN, Shango, Jimmy, and ?)

·         Each speaker has a 5-10 slide talk to introduce a topic

o   Intro to shrimp (Ken?)

§  Requirements (temp, pH, hardness, min tank size…)

§  Feeding

§  Breeding

o   Setting up a shrimp tank (Shango of ?)

§  Picture of a shrimp tank that shows relevant parts like substrate, role of cover, airstone?

o   Personal observations  (Shango of ?)

§  Someone that likes to take pictures and can share a few “special moments”

o   Common Shrimp types (Jimmy)

§  Ie these are the shrimp Jimmy brought.

·         3 mics in total with one for the Mod, One for the speakers, and one for Q’s.

 

In thinking how I can contribute, I have a pair of 5.5 gal tanks taking up space for a project I will likely never do.   I could bring  a tank, light, plants, and substrate to the meeting and set them up with aged water.   The tanks could sit on the speaker table and serve as a reference.  I would also like to have live shrimp in them to give an example.  Afterwards the tank and all could go into a door prize or auction or the shrimp could be sold out separately..   I would like to restart the “fish of the month” program with $30-50 in shrimp to Jimmy but I also appreciate Shango’s comments on common vs. odd shrimp and the price gap of commercial vs. hobby.  I can pull (and attribute) shrimp pictures to project behind Jimmy if he would like.    I am but one vote on the board though.  So what do you think?

 

-Paul

I dont really have anything to say unfortunately.  I don't pay much attention to my tank chemistry.  I just get really lucky because shrimp love all the moss I have and go nuts.  That and I discovered cuttlefish bone.  That is the extent of what I have to share.  If I had any expertise, I'd be glad to share but alas I just ignore them and they populate.
