Title: Monthly Meeting input please!
Post by: Fishnut on June 14, 2011, 10:33:27 AM
This thread is to give people an opportunity to give ideas for monthly meeting topics.  In order to keep this thread simple, please express your topic(s) of interest in a short manner. For example:

1. Breeding Bettas
2. Building a pond
3. Rare livebearers

I would like to emphasize that this is a topic suggestion only, not a place to critique other ideas, complain or vent about past topics or lack of past topics.  If you need to do that or elaborate on one of your ideas, please send me a PM. :)

I have also posted a poll http://ovas.ca/index.php?topic=50797.0 that gives you a chance to comment on how we can improve the meetings in general.

Cheers

Could do a workshop on how to build a stand for your tank.

For some this is easy but others wouldnt know where to start.

I'd like a presentation and workshop on plants:
- planting techniques
- layout
- soil, substrate layering
- DIY Co2 diffusers

I like this suggestion.

Also fish compatibility, a lot of people don't realize that all fish are not
happy together.

Maybe a presentation on shipping fish.

That's an interesting idea!!  It would certainly make people think about what their fish have gone through to get to the LFS's.

Thanks everyone!!  Keep the ideas coming!!
