You go greg.. :razz:

I hope they have that loripes in stock for you still. I seem to remember hearing through th grapevine that it was sold out pretty quick. Hopefully I am wrong though cause it is a sweet looking piece.

I would be interested but I need dry goods :cry:

ie.. new HQI halide bulb, a test kit.. and of course I would order a few frags of something...

I assume this wouldn't work though, correct?

scuglass
11-14-2005, 03:47 PM
i need some dry goods in about a week so prolly once this is done we can organize an order on dry goods

OCDP

steve is this a new tank ? if u dont mind me asking what are u planning to pick up? just looking for ideas

SJSobczyk
11-14-2005, 05:37 PM
No my tank is about a year old. I would be looking at around the same amount of snails you were looking at. Plus maybe a starfish that could keep the sand nice and clean.

By the way i have a DHL account for my business that has CHEAP rates. So once everything is calculated i could figure out how much it costs to ship using my account.

This would be my first time jumping in on a group order so forgive a few dumb questions.

- I only want to buy a few small things (total around $20) Do we all split shipping evenly, or is it split on a weighted average.

- Do we put the order in as one lump or do we do it seperatley and just have it shipped together

- who do we pay


i'm sure their are more.. but thats whats on the top of my head. please forgive my ignorance

It figures that the one piece of acro I really wanted which is why I was ordering in the first place is no longer available. :evil:
Anyway I am not sure how you can pay me but cash is alway best. May as well pay me when you pick up the order at my place.
I am waiting as I write this for OA to return my call so I can get the order placed.
As for the shipping I think we would all split it? Otherwise what was the point? We should have all just done our own orders. Anyway I will keep you posted when I hear more.

I have emailed OA with what I wanted.

Snappy
11-16-2005, 01:03 AM
Ok I just talked to OA and the Corals I want will be in later in the week so the shipment will probably be here late this week or early next week. Is everybody ok with that. Hopefully none of you are in a huge rush. Let me know.
Thanks.

RobbAdams
11-17-2005, 03:32 PM
I am kinda holding out to see if anythig really cool comes with the web update, but for fear of missing out on the order, I am interested in a "green tipped Branching Frogspawn frag", and a "Galaxie Frag"


What is the process? do I call OA, and make arrangements to be included on the "Calgary" order? or do I send $ to the order "arranger" ?

scuglass
11-17-2005, 03:53 PM
pretty sure snappy is taking pms of orders and u pay him when u pick the stuff up. correct me if im wrong snappy

11-17-2005, 04:39 PM
Sorry guys but i have to jump outta this one. Let me know if you still would like to use my DHL account. I think its far more important for me to get some dry goods right now.

Steve

scuglass
11-17-2005, 04:53 PM
where are u gonna get them from i believ that there are a few people including me who also would like to get some dry goods u should start another threead inquiring about it.

SJSobczyk
11-17-2005, 04:58 PM
I am probably going with J&L because they have the bulb for the UV sterilizer i need. Plus i am picking up some extra things. I was going to order probably on Monday.

Wendell from OA called today and left me a message sating that the Bali shipment I was waiting on is delayed until next Thursday at the earliest. Since my personal order won't be placed until they have what I want I am thinking that maybe one you other reefers should take the ball and run with it unless you can all wait another week. Sorry guys, but it is out of my control. Let me know what you want to do. Sorry for the trouble.

scuglass
11-18-2005, 05:06 AM
hmm well thats no good. :confused: i would order but my credit card is maxed already this month with my car insurance :evil: . is anyone else able to order ? the alge bloom has started :eek: and is soon going to be outta control without a clean up crew :frown: . if ne 1 else is able to order befor snappy that would be great. if not i guess ill have to keep my cool and wait it out :cool: .

thanks scott

scuglass
11-18-2005, 06:41 AM
credit card is maxed and if im gonna send a check i might as well wait for the bali shipment cause it would take just as long. :evil: damn insurance costs so much :evil:

OCDP
11-18-2005, 02:42 PM
the alge bloom has started :eek: and is soon going to be outta control without a clean up crew :frown: .

Simply scrape the glass and turkey baste all diatoms and other nuisance algae into a bucket and dispose of it. That's what I did/do. Works better than a cleanup crew hahah

I think it would be easiest to have everybody call Ocean Aquatics with their own order and pay them directly. Talk to Wendell and tell him it is to be added onto Greg's Calgary order and I will call everyone when it's here.
PM me your Phone #.
Thanks.
