If you want to know how people get those amazing shots well just keep reading.  We'll go through the basics of photography and then some tips that will help you take better shots of your aquarium.  For the tips that I've put together, just click 'Read more'

The February meeting will be held on February 20, 2010 at the Atrium adjacent to the UCO Science Building, beginning at 7:30 p.m.

There will be a demonstration of cutting rock mounted coral frags at the meeting. Chris Jilge will be conducting the demonstration, using the new model of the Inland wet saw. Members are invited to bring corals to be fragged, especially acans, favia and others. Please drop a note to Chris, (Cjilge) to let him know what kind of coral you have. Chris will demonstrate use, cleaning and maintenance of the saw.

The saw will be the door prize in a drawing for members at the end of the meeting.

Chair persons of the frag, equipment and library programs will also be there to answers questions and check club items in and out.

The COMAS website as you can see has under gone a makeover.  There are still a few bugs in the system to work out, mostly with the login form.  However we are working on fixing them and should have them patched up in no time.  There are two main problems, one is the old username/password combos didn't seem to transfer over very well so you will need to click the lost password link on the left hand side just under the login form.  You will receive an email with instructions to reset your password and after that you shouldn't have any problems.  Also we've noticed a bug that occurs occasionally. If you try to login and are sent to a white page that says 'Invalid token' just go back to the main page and clear out your cookies/cache and refresh the page.  This should take care of the issue.  We should have these issues fixed shortly but until then if you have problems that aren't fixed by the above mentioned then just send an email to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
