Awesome. Do we need to RSVP?

[acitydweller]

Not that i am aware of by perusing both websites. I plan on placing an order with msjinkzd for pickup.

Dang if this was on a weekend i'd totally show up! I got pretty excited when I saw the topic form the main page.

[eeng168]

I'll go, just to get out of the house.

If there are a few of us attending, it might be another opportunity for more swapping.

It's may also be an opportunity to buy from Msjinkzd and arrange a pick up.

I have class gahhhhhhhh
would have been totally cool to go to :\

[MrBrongher]

I don't suppose anyone coming from parts north would be willing to give me a ride from the Bronx? I could pay in plants and livestock, or just actual boring money.

[chibikaie]

Ok so I JUST said, oh, I can't go, I work in the Bronx that day, but then I saw the next comment, and I googled the route and it doesn't look terrible. Because if no one else can give you a ride and there ARE going to be some of us going, I'm willing to give a ride if you have toll money. Someone smarter than me talk me into or out of this thing, I'm bad at decisions.

[MrBrongher]

I don't know if I'm smarter than you but I do know that I have toll money and various plants and livestock you're welcome to should you want any.

The invert talk should be interesting and I really want to buy some microcrabs.

[sonicpath]

be aware microcrab dig out plant roots. and once you set them free in the tank, you probably won't see them under the day light.

Let's see with Rachel if she can get us those pygmy cories....

[HybridHerp]

she has pygmy cories?
someone tell me why I'm not going to this T_T

[chibikaie]

I want pygmy cories, but I think they would be lunch in one tank and eat lunch in the other ...

What the heck. Let's go! I do have to warn that if there's an emergency late in the day, that I may have to cancel at the last minute. PM me for details and make sure I have a phone number, I may not have internet access.
