Greetings Fishy Friends!
Please join us at our next meeting: Wednesday June
12th at 7.00pm Richard Pierce on Tetras… Hope to see you all there... ************************************************************* THE LAST MEETING: The May meeting of
NHAS was called to order around 7:10 PM on May 8, 2013. The speaker for the
evening was Calvin Diessner who spoke on farming
fish and plants together. Calvin has just completed a master’s degree program
at the University of New Hampshire in which he did an intensive study of a
closed system containing fish and plants. That is, combining hydroponics and
aquaculture to what is called aquaponics. With and
interesting mix of charts, videos and conversation Calvin led us through the
various experiments he conducted and the conclusions made based on those
experiments. Mr. Diessner, a dynamic speaker with
total command of his topic, provided a very interesting and informative
evening for the group. Judging by the number of questions that came from the
audience everyone found the subject very interesting and seemed eager to
learn more. We want to thank Calvin for a very clear and concise
presentation. After a brief break
for refreshments and much ‘fishy’ talk the meeting resumed with the drawing
for the monthly raffle and the announcement of the bowl and photo show
winners. The final event was a substantial auction with the usual great
bargains.
