Montreal is coming!!!

[charlie]

As some of you may know, we had the good fortune to pay a visit to Montreal as guest of the planted tank hobbyist, it`s now our turn to return the gesture and play host to our plant loving hobbyist from Montreal, to this end we( planted tank hobbyist of Ottawa) will be hosting our neighbor and friends on Sunday May 28th.
So far the plan is to have our visitors tour a few of planted tank hobbyist homes, Tanksalo360 , Gibortorn and wolfiewill has opened their homes and tanks for this visit, if anyone else is up to joining these guys please indicate in this thread or PM me.
there is also plans to visit Big Al`s on Innis road and Critter Jungle who has kindly offered to look into to a special offer for this venture.Any our plant hobbyist who is willing to join us as part of the hosting group and final tour and reception , please let us know.
Regards

Just to add my two cents worth.... I went to Mtl for that trip and it was very, very nice. Well worth the trip.

I have found the whole hobby experience has become so much more rewarding as I met more and more people from the OVAS area. I am now finding that the people from Mtl also just as much fun and knowledgeable. So, I strongly recommend to all of the planted tank people to join us for this event. We are going to get to view new tanks in the area, and get lots of info about how others do stuff. I am constantly surprised at the inventiveness of others who have solved problems I have been trying to solve as well. And sometimes these solutions are so much more simple than I thought.

And a big thanks to charlie for organizing this for us. So who's going to join us. As a host, I need to know how many will be here, as will the other hosts. Cheers.

I would love to come and see what everyone else tis doing and as well bring your bucket back Greg . I will have to double check with family and make sure i can do that i will get back for sure another time

[charlie]

Come on guys, can you please post who is attending, Greg needs to know
So far the visitors along with  any interested parties will be visiting tanksalot and  Gilbotron , then big als , Critter jungle  depending on time, then to Greg and his 300 plus gallon master piece along with his other tanks.
My tanks are just stuffed with plants and livestock in holding mode not mention they have been neglected, so nothing show here.

For those coming on the tour, I spoke with Marlon at the Innes store and he is willing to give a bit of a bonus on the plants to the tour.
The more you buy the bigger the deal..but speak to him when you go, and let him know you are the plant guys tour.

[charlie]

Thanks for the support Jody, it`s appreciated.

[matttimms49]

Just PM'd you.

I just realised that I am going to be without a car for this weekend. Is there any chance of a carpool with anyone or I may be able to meet you at critter jungle. I live close to the Carling one.

Cheers
