Several members attended over the weekend and all
seemed to enjoy talking to the customers. Many of the people to whom
we spoke did not know that there was an Aquarist Society in Otley and they were
interested in what we did.
Most of the inquires were related with
ph, nitrate and ammonia problems along with over feeding. Lots of people also
seem to be having the old familiar problem of green water in their ponds.
There
was a painting competition for the children, the winner to be announced at our
Open Show in September. Free samples of fish food and water treatments were given
out along with live food.
The society would like to thank the staff
at Pets at Home for their help in organising the weekend especially Stuart the
manager. Lets hope we will be able to make this an annual event.
