    For just a dinner hangout these are the only 2 places I know have reef tanks, would be nice to know of others.

    1) Cibo Fusion 685 Marion Blvd, Marion, IA 52302
    2) Emil's Hideaway 222 Glenbrook Dr SE, Cedar Rapids, IA 52403

    butcher block has/had a big tank, I assume they still do, but not sure what kind of shape it is in. Last time I was in there it was pretty rough.

    Good to know guys and noted. I remember the butcher block from last years tank tour. It also doesn't have to be a place with a fish tank either but would be a plus.

    We don't have a date for it yet and actually wont be doing the diy coral viewer I dont think. I was thinking we could have a meeting at a @gburkart@gburkart's place and maybe assist him in his build or maybe help him drill his tank if it would work for him. I am also all ears for things other would like to do or cover as well.

    Right now we're looking at making some DIY food for April.
    @LiLNicky@LiLNicky could be a back up plan for March. He has plenty of tanks that are sitting around empty.

    Since not much has been said on dates... I think we will set it for March 26th. People can start coming over at 12 and leave whenever they want. I will provide food and drink. If people want to bring some kind of side or dessert that would be awesome. We can hang out and talk tanks and I will try to have some kind of easy project we can accomplish and maybe get thoughts on some future ones.
