Well I thought I would host a Stampede party/ frag party if there is enough interest.
Our newest moderator, Christy is coming in for the weekend from Nanaimo, so it seemed like a great chance for a meet and greet.
Let me know if you can make it........ Saturday July 16 starting around 7 PM
Jim
PS... my home can only hold the first 100 people, so be quick to respond so you won't be disappointed :lol:

I realise you will all have to get over bitter disappointment, but I am always out of town on summertime weekends, so count me out. :sad:

I have some vague plans to host a zoanthid get together late September, or October. I have quite a few larger frags that will be ready for new homes. I have also divided up some Ricordias that are attaching nicely. :biggrin:
After that I am planning to put my 75 and contents up for sale. That tank is not allowing me to go away for extended periods of time, which I would like to do during my retirement. :sad:

07-06-2005, 04:37 PM

I am having trouble with my sps over the last few weeks. I have lost 5 acro frags to bleaching and my hammer and frogspawn have lost most of their color. :confused: :cry:
I will be parting out most of my sps to try and save them until my tank stabilizes.
Unfortunately we will be looking at mainly live rock at the meeting :sad:
I hope this is okay with everyone.....
I wish my tank was more stable. It has only been up and running for 3 months.

I'm hoping to come now also with my wife Jim as we'll actually be in town this weekend. I am wondering if people will be selling any frags as well as just trading since I only have one small thing I could sell (A small rock with 5 yellow polyps on it?). I have a few things I would like to find though like GSP, some small colorful zoos frags, xenia, montipora??
I'll love to see your setup and meet some more local salties though...

Hmmm, I could get some. Nothing too fancy since all the fancy zoos I have are all FRAGS.
Sigh...
http://www.cichlids.ca/images/gallery/Salt/Zoos/Zoo4.jpg
Some of the ones in the center for sure though. Dark green with orange mouth.
They'll be the size of that colony in the pic or maybe a tad smaller.
