Any one have any micro they want to giveaway or sell for cheap. Perfurable around Port Alberni, Parksville, Courtney/Comox or Nanaimo.

Thanks.

Also looking for some LS to seed my tank too.

Anything. I want to put plant life in first for my new 33g. If it doen't go sexual that would be better, but for now I'll take what I can.

I will need to remove some grape vine caulerpa from my sump, about 1/2 of a 4 liter ice cream container this weekend. Send me a PM.

I'm heading through Port Alberni on Friday and probably again on Staturday on my way to Nitnaht. Then down to Duncan on Tuesday.

Maybe we can meet up somewhere. I can give you a cup of sand too if you need.

I've got some halimeda (the small bladed stuff) and some red macroalgae. I can't remember what the red stuff is called. I can try to find a pic for you. I'm coming to Port Alberni for the long weekend and can bring it then if you'd like.

Thanks Lee for dropping of some sand and grape vine caulerpa. The stuff was exactly what I was looking for. I even found about five worms after I added it to my system. Do you know what exactly they are?

Anyways thanks you again for your willingness to help out newbies like me.

Tomm, I would have willingly given you all the grape and razor calurpa you could carry a year ago, but after the problems I had with it and the work it took to get rid of it, even if I had some now I couldn't in good conscience give it to some one else and have them risk going through what I went through with it.

I know people have had problems with it, even Lee told me it took him two years to get it out of his main tank. So I am aware of it.
Christy is willing to drop some other stuff off for me May long weekend and I believe diversity is best. If I don't like it I could pull it out.
