NY hits a milestone

Go NY go NY GO!

We have to pad our lead!

(Post 10,005)

People let me know if there is ever a western New York meet. I'd be happy to travel between buffalo, Rochester, Olean, ect.

We are pretty awesome.

REPRESENT!!! I just wish we had more aquatic facilities/ LFS's

Cool!

Maybe next meet, I won't be in Hawaii.

Being that NY has the most populated city in the US (NYC) and majority of the posts in the NY forum is from NYC residents....I'd say statistically speaking we were bound to reach this landmark before the others.

We have surpassed 10000 posts today with a significant lead ahead of all other state sub-forums.

I think the flood of posts started to come in after the first swap meet and after everyone got to know each other. Anyways, new thread for plans for the November meetup?

Anyone else care to organize the next meet or shall I?

Change of venue or shall we keep it the same but include food?

There's a restaurant four blocks south of aquastar where one chooses four items and a soup for $3.75. There's plenty of seats there that would certainly fit a rowdy group like us.

We could consider a tour of the jersey lfs between rt4, rt17 and 46 (absolutely fish) or checkout Greenwich,ct provided we have rides for everyone. I'm planning to goto the new Ada store in ridge wood, nj tomorrow midday. Hope its worth the trip...

You can do the organization Albert, you did a great job with the first one.

anyone know of rochester meets?

Seconded.

Meanwhile, CT has had maybe one new thread. Told you guys there was a reason I came all the way from CT ...

The Greenwich stores are heavy on the saltwater side, just FYI. Stunning displays but stuff is also quite pricey.

I thought we were meeting in New Rochelle in November, did that change?

I have a different take on that.I'd say it is made possible by the public transport system

For the transport reason alone, having the same location for the meet generally suits all of us. There was plenty to see at each of the shops and enough interest for many to linger even after hitting all the stores so sticking with the same venue and adding food/indoor swap area seems quite viable.

There is interest in visiting a fish wholesaler in new rochelle but would defer to ed to coordinate as I've raised a group buy thread to help the topic along. Remember that New Rochelle was discussed (outside aquastar) before the msjinkzd event was announced.

Happy to get feedback for the next meet if anyone wqnt to offer suggestions on change of location, day of week or timing...etc. I believe carpooling can and should be arranged ahead of schedule now that many of us have met.

Well, its really a great achievement, here we are also ahead to reach to the milestone before the time spam, we guys are just the rocking indeed.

I would definitely go back to those previous places, especially since I didn't look around the first store as much as I wanted to.

This time we should being some Duckweed and Cherry culls so that homeless guy can enjoy a gourmet meal of some shrimp and salad.

MABJ and Jake10 you guys should try and form a group.

Way to go NY!

Has everyone been to Absolutely Fish, awsome place and the Pet Shanty too!

I'm hoping to hit http://rt4aquarium.com/ , http://www.ridgewoodaquariumimports.com/ and possibly http://www.absolutelyfish.com/ if time permits this afternoon. Midnight madness is insane!
