WAMAS = Washington DC area Marine Aquarist Society
CMAS = Chesapeake Marine Aquarist Society
Personally I didn't realize that it was a WAMAS AND CMAS social. Sundays area a great day for me so I think I may show up for it. I went to scales just the other day and that place is nice! Not much there yet but I guess that is what the social is for. Once they get everything going there I would rank it as Top 2 LFS in Maryland along with Exotic Aquatics in Baltimore.

I still haven't been to Exotic Aquatics either. The social is supposed to be nice. It does sound like fun.

Hey,
We went to Scales last weekend and it really will be nice! Ficklefins, did you see those Discus they have there?!?! Man...makes me want to set up a fresh water planted tank again. I've been to EA....several times, it has some different stuff which is cool. We live kinda close to House of Tropics....which is kinda hit or miss. If you get there right when they get corals in sometimes you'll find something interesting.
Where in Southern Maryland are you Sandy? I'm gessing Rozen's is probably closer to you? That place is pretty scary...LOL...but sometimes they have something groovy in. Its kind of one of those places where you buy something and then pray for the first week that it makes it. =P
The social sounds fun, hubby and I will be there.

Yeah, I am about 15 minutes from Roozen's. Sometimes you can find good stuff but it is very scary. I get a little aggravated when the one guy is back there. Everything to him is "rare and from Sri Lanka" so the price gets jacked up. If you go on Sunday morning before 11:30 he is at church and you get semi decent prices. I picked up some nice acan lords and blastomussa wellsi a few weeks ago. Before that I got some nice zoa's and paly's for a decent price.

Thanks for the tip Sandy! I like going to Roozens but when that guy (Larry) is there I cringe.

No, I'm going to the WAMAS meeting at the DC Aquarium tonight. I should join CMAS. I haven't done that yet but Geo and his girlfriend come to our meetings both SMMAS and WAMAS.
Where is the CMAS meeting?

The CMAS meeting is at the Johns hopkins applied physics lab everytime. i go but can't really tell you what area it is in since i live in baltimore and just follow mapquest directions there - somewhere south of columbia i think. you can find specific directions at cmas-md.org

Hey Kev, I've been to the CMAS meeting too, my husband never misses them (John, Six-line).
Sandy - Eek! Hmm...trying to remember. Hair color? There was a fair amount of chickies there...at CMAS there is only a few. I was the highly bored red head laying next to the gators watching a movie on my Ipod. LOL. I listened a bit to the clam talk but goodness that was a long presentation!

Hey Reefwifey,
I am not sure if i have met John or not. I have only been a member about 3 months and it seems that most times i end up talking extensively to just a couple of people each meeting. I do recognize him on the boards and of course as Jan. MOTM!

I'm not sure how many of you plan to attend the social this Sunday, but I plan on putting a big CZ on my name tag. I think it would be cool if other Club-Zoa people could add that to their name tag to make it easier to find each other.
Just a thought, and I'm sure I'll be the only one with a CZ on his name tag!
