Edit: Congratulations to you and the rest of the PMASI for hosting a great MACNA XIX!

That sounds exciting I would love to attend some stuff like that. It is too bad there really isn't anything similar in the seattle area.(at least that I know about)

Our next meeting is Saturday, February 23rd, about a week and a half away. It will be held as usual at the Radisson Inn in Monroeville beginning at 6:00 PM. Our guest speaker for the month is Chuck Stottlemire of Cleveland, Ohio. Chuck will be speaking on his attempts to keep various non-photosynthetic corals and other filter feeders. As a sneak peak, you can take a look at an article on Chuck's aquarium and his work here, Report on a Successful Husbandry Method for a General Azooxanthellate Reef System including Dendronephthya by Charles Matthews - Reefkeeping.com Hope to see some of you all there!

So how was chuck's presentation? I eat at that Radisson all the time. I think I would like to start going to some of these things. Unfortunately I have an engagement party to attend this Saturday so I couldn't go to the thing at the zoo.

How do I become a member in good standing (my posture is horrible) and is it a member of MACNA, MASNA, or PMASI.
