Hey all you Reef Geeks!
August is here and its time for another Southern California Reef Keepers meeting! This months meeting will be held at Age of Aquariums on Sunday, August 19th, 2012 at 6pm. We are pleased to announce that we have Aviad Ben-Zekry from Red Sea coming to speak about the basics of maintaining a reef tank, biological processes that happen within the coral, and the involvement of different elements in the corals life. This will be a speaker not to miss!
Our speakers BIO-
"My name is Aviad Ben-Zekry. I have a B.Sc in Marine Biology and Biotechnology from "The Ruppin Academic Center" in Israel. I have been an avid fish and coral hobbyist for a decade. I am a member of the moderation and writing team for "AQUA- The Israeli Ornamental Fish Association" www. AQUA.org.il . I was a guest lecturer, on multiple occasions, at AQUA's annual conferences. I have been working for Red-Sea for almost 3 years, both in Israel and now the U.S. I worked in the Research and Development department and helped develop the new line of test kits and supplements of the RCP(Reef Care Program), as well as the new MAX-S series tanks. I recently moved to Southern California and as a Product Specialist for Red Sea, North America.I provide the scientific and technical support needs of the sales and customer support teams in the US, as well as online support over the fish forums. I love diving, hiking and enjoying nature in general. My hope is that through our hobby we can preserve a lot of the species that are affected by global warming and loss of habitat.
All the best,
Aviad Ben-Zekry "
