Well, given that no one backs out I'm sure we'll be fine but, it'd be nice to get in the mid 30's for attendee's to ensure that we have enough people to get this confirmed.

Looks like I may have the kids that weekend. I'll just plan a sitter, but if we need the numbers, I'm sure my older two would love to go. If you want to add them Nick, go for it. Logan & Lila

Added them Jen.
Guess I'm not too worried, we still have a few months yet for people who haven't signed up yet. Plus Matt said he'd put a sign up in Olde Towne Pets for people who don't use the internet much but would like to go. I'm sure after word spreads a little after the next meeting we'll see some more.

I think I will go if I can get that day off from work. It would be just myself. So you can put me on the list now and hopefully I won't have to back out later. Thanks

Are you sure you want bumblebee snails in your tank? I hate to be possibly bursting a bubble, but they aren't really that beneficial. They're often sold as being a "Clean-Up Crew" item, but they don't eat algae and instead prey on fauna in the sand bed and/or on the live rock. Having just one or two probably wouldn't do too much damage unless the tank is a small one, but still, they're really just a pretty looking snail that does damage to your tank that you can't see...
I know this because I used to have them and then one day was alerted to what they were really doing in my old 20gal tank. A quick Google search confirmed the diagnosis of trouble in my DSB in that tank.

Oh, I know it's a joke, but nonetheless they're not very reef-friendly in terms of the damage they inflict on a tank's fauna. Not the best freebie to get by accident.
