#357359 Sponsor Stimulus Competition 2016.

Please make sure you take a clear photo of the receipt incorporating the date, price and Sponsor store name and pm myself. Please don't hand me receipts at meetings as not only will they possibly be misplaced but you may need them for warranty purposes.

I will keep a copy of each receipt to ensure all tickets are recorded against the total purchase amount. I will let you know how many tickets each member has prior to the draw meeting.

The start date is 1 December 2016 so unfortunately Chen, Wednesday is not included.

Following feedback from last year, we have extended the period of the comp to 3 months so more members can participate and have a chance to win some fantastic prizes.

Dear Fellow Cichlid Preservation Supporters,

 

The PCS has launched its next fundraising initiative in support of the Stuart Grant Cichlid Preservation Fund.

We expect that most individuals would enjoy a chocolate, so we have teamed up with Cadbury's to sell chocolates under the Cadbury's Fundraiser campaign banner. As members have recognised, all funds raised, no matter how large or small, will go a long way in preserving our favourite cichlid species in Africa, whether Lake Tanganyika or Lake Malawi.

We have been well supported by some of our LFS sponsors who have agreed to sell chocolates on our behalf in their stores. You can now enjoy a chocolate while purchasing your next stash at either:

The chocolates on sale are:

We will also have these for sale at each PCS meeting from the kitchen, so please support. Should members want to buy a whole box, $60 will get you enough chocolates to see you through Christmas. Please PM me if you are interested.

 

In the new year, we will be asking if members would like to sell chocolates on behalf of PCS. Committee members have already started with each member taking a box to their place of work. I dropped mine off at work on Friday and half the box is already gone. We do apologise in advance to anyone who gains weight, but it is for a good cause.

 

Thank you for your continued support.

These peacocks can be skittish - I have the Blue Neons and they are extremely skittish and tend to dislike any movement outside the tank. It does impact their feeding habits as well.

I have mine in with some non aggressive haps and that seems to help out with the feeding behaviours as once the haps go for the food, the peacocks come out to feed.

Hi Ronny

Not sure if you get to Perth much, but if you do, I really hope you could attend one of our monthly meetings. Your photography skills are unbelievable and we would love to hear any tips you are willing to share. Without offending other photographers on here, your photos are some of the best I have seen anywhere. I am very jealous

Anymore donation lots would be very welcome, including all the excess equipment you have lying around. You do not need to be a regular seller to donate. These lots always attract plenty of interest and the purpose aligns well with our club mission.

Just think how good you will feel the next time you look at your aquarium and tell your cichlids that you are helping to save their family.

Yes, we all know you talk to your fish.....
