October 2017 meeting

I am looking for foreground plants. I would like to buy $5 worth of almost any foreground plant. Post below if you can put together $5 bucks worth of something and bring it to the meeting. I will post a "sold" below if I can use what you have.

Thanks

FYI You can trim down a plastic card to fit in the scraper.

But I still don't use it, guess it's more fun to get my arm wet.

I have one from ADA that I don't use. I like the curved tweezers, in fact, if they still had the same tools, I might have picked up another set now that they include the tool rack.

The tool set went up in price about $4, BUT, they now include an acrylic tool rack to hang on an aquarium. They also changed out one set of tweezers for an algae scraper.

Contact at National Botanical Garden

Could someone please search out the post with the contact info. My phone is failing me in my search attempts. I am in DC with the day off and thought I'd stop by there to talk to the person.

The tweezers have sharper points, the scissors are less clunky. The only thing better about the GWAPA set is the case.

This (is) WAS the set of aquascaping tools you want.

They just arrived tonight, wish I had them for the meeting today. The tweezers are better than anything I saw at the AGA conference in Denver. Go check them out.

I hope people got the chance to buy the tools because they are gone.
