Jen Dillon: “My Journey Keeping Planted Tanks”
SPU, Otto Miller Hall Room 109
Jen Dillon has been in the planted tank hobby for over 25 years. She's been an active volunteer in the AGA, attending seven of their conventions. Here at GSAS, she runs the Horticulture Awards Program and is a regular auctioneer. She's set up tanks commercially, worked in many aquarium retailers, done research and development for start-ups, moderated planted tank forums (JenThePlantGeek), and has recently built a garage fishroom where she runs her business, AquaTerra Workshops. Jen has set up and torn down countless aquariums, and made many mistakes along the way. Join her on her journey through keeping planted tanks - the joys, the sorrows, the dangers, and successes.
After the main presentation, stay for the Monthly Auction (sellers, pre-register your stuff here).
Hope everyone's having a great summer. The Greater Seattle Aquarium Society Fall Schedule is out, and we have an incredible line-up for the next four months. We once again have the second Saturday of the month for all our meetings this year!
A big thank you to everyone who came out in force to our record-breaking general auction this year, especially to all our volunteers who worked tirelessly the whole day. And a special thanks to the sponsor stores and national companies.
Our big auctions still remain the primary source of income from the club, and their success means we can pay our rent and Internet video storage bills, bring in top quality speakers, and have nice prizes in our contests throughout the year. Thanks again!
