At the August 2005 meeting, Robert and his wife graced us with his wonderful hospitality and impressive fishroom. As usual, we had a ton of plants at our mini-auction.


Look at the size of that banana plant!

Aaron’s CO2 Reactor Demonstration


First, clean materials with Acetone..

Cleaning.

Apply PVC adhesive.

Attach the endcap.

Use a twisting motion to better secure the join.

Add the Bio-Balls to the reactor.

Put on the other endcap.

Use teflon tape to insure the barb connection is air-tight.

Insert the barb.

Aaron looks quite pleased with his finished reactor, doesn’t he?
