Here is the link for the LIRA membership,

However, I suggest that you go to the meeting, then decide whether you want to join as a member before the auction and raffle for free corals start.

LIRA sometimes (not always) collects $5.- for non-member attendees, the worse you can lose is $5.-.

The free Recordia Yuma for the raffle winner in next meeting is very similar to the "Bright Orange Yuma" as shown on the following vendor's website.

In addition to a 5" RBTA which will be available for the meeting, I also have a 12" giant RBTA at home tank. Please post in this thread if anyone (hobbiests only) needs it. I will try to pull it out and take it to the meeting, but no guarantee.

This RBTA is more than 15 years old, I have donated more than 20 of their children and grandchildren to different clubs. The following picture was taken 1 year ago, now is even larger.
