:sad: Between already sick corals and the heat the past few weeks I am afraid if I don't do something drastic my sps will be down the tubes. I am loosing colonies and others are browning out on me. I am wondering if any of the local sps folks might be able to help me out. I would like to frag much of my sps so it stands a greater chance for survival. It looks like I will be setting up my new tank in a month or two(need to build the sump room first) but I have nowhere to put the frags at the moment. I also want to store some other frags I have as well as a few colonies. I guess what I am saying is if anyone has room in a frag growout tank or the likes and would like to get some nice frags for storing some of my stuff I would really appreciate it. When I set up my new tank I will be starting a lot of the LR with new. Before last winter I had no hair algae or bubble algae but I made the mistake last fall of buying the remaining LR and contents from a guy who was getting out of the hobby. His rock had some of each and now I have a big problem. I think this inheirited hair algae has also contributed greatly to the poor health of my tank. Anyway that's my sob story.
Please let me know if interested.
Thanks,

Crap, wish I had a tank to help you out Greg. I'll ask around for you though.

How many corals are we talking? I might have room for a couple. I'll call you tonight.

Albert, you have plenty of room at the store don't you?

I can help you out, but my system is fairly new, only 1.5 months. 30 gal seahorse tank, drilled, 10 gal refuge, no skimmer, 150 HQi mh (about 4-6 months of life left), 2 sea horses, 1 yellow tang on hold for a friend, only 5 lbs of rock though. I should be back around the weekend, you are welcome to come by and see for yourself.
