Bad weekend, very VERY BAD weekend. I came home to a cloudy frag tank. ��

Lost the whole colony of ORA Red Planet and as well all the frags I had on hold for everyone that PM'd me.*

Along with the RP, I lost all my back up ORA Frags: Hawkins, Plum Crazy, Monti Setosa, Pearlberry, Purple Haze.*

I apologize to all the members that waited so patiently for nothing. I have a few frags left that are hanging on by a thread, I'll offer those to the members that I had held pieces for, IF they pull through.*

Snaz 05-21-2012 01:11 PM

Wow. Sorry for your losses. Any idea what happened?

albert_dao 05-27-2012 05:25 PM

:(

Sorry to hear about your corals Reefie! That RP colony... Heartbreaking...

dc4 06-05-2012 06:19 PM

Man, I need to buy myself a decent camera... :cry:

Bblinks 06-05-2012 06:28 PM

Just got a 60D and I am loving it. I say go for it DC4. I know you should have a lot of frags for the swap.

Ginu 06-05-2012 07:13 PM

Nice... Would love to pick one up but I have a leak in the basement that needs attention, the damn main water line has been busted for years outside without us knowing and is wreaking havoc on our foundation so that comes first, sadly. Insurance is only covering the inside and not the outside issues.

I do have 2 frag racks full of nice sps frags but no way to transport them to the swap meet, however, that light blue stag you got looks nice. :wink:

salt bucket and a sheet of styrofoam, punch the holes on them, and float them.

That's more of the reason for you to come by and sell some frags...

Sounds easy enough but I dont know if I want to chance losing any pieces. Gotta find a camera first to gauge if there is enough interest in the frags I have before risking it. I still have 3 spaces left on the racks, maybe Ill come by to see if I can fill those up. :lol:

Bblinks 06-05-2012 09:27 PM

I can prolly swing by and snap a few pics for you if you want Darren. LMK

That would be awesome but I just noticed the time of the meet and I probably wont be able to make it as I have to pick up my son after he is done with his mandarin class 315pm. Ill have to double check my wifes schedule to see if shes off that day first.

We are planning to have some food and drinks so I am sure that you can make it. If you want you can bring your kid over to my house and I can teach him Mandarin. :mrgreen: I got couple kids too so it is gonna be a family event. feel free to yours if you want. I am sure there will be other members who are coming with kids.

Claudia 06-05-2012 11:53 PM

I will b bringing my 14 month old boy :D

untamed 06-06-2012 12:50 AM

Shoot, I would be both buyer and seller....but can't make that particular day. Another time.

Bblinks 06-06-2012 08:04 AM

Okay guys I got some good news. I have confirmation that there will be a door prize sponsored by JL AQUATICS. I am very excited to have the support from one of our favorite local fish stores. I am not gonna say what it is but if you show up at the frag swap you will have a chance to win it! Thank you Jeff and the JL team for stepping up.

Claudia 06-06-2012 08:09 AM

Thats awesome, thanks J and L :)

SeaHorse_Fanatic 06-06-2012 08:45 AM

You know where I live still right Anthony? Glad to hear you can make it out. PM me for info if you need it.

SeaHorse_Fanatic 06-06-2012 07:28 PM

I'll call when I'm on my way. Thanks for hosting. June is just a super crazy month for me (both Felicia's 4th and Isabella's 1st birthday bbq parties are in June). Just hosted 40+ for Felicia's and expect around 100 guests for Isabella's. Great of you to step up and volunteer your place for this event. Do you need tables or chairs or anything?

Bblinks 06-06-2012 09:17 PM

Wow, busy busy, that sounds like my August. I wouldn't mind getting some extra chairs and tables... :biggrin:

SeaHorse_Fanatic 06-06-2012 10:18 PM

OK. Let me know what you need in terms of numbers. I have 3 folding tables and lots of camp chairs.

Reefie 06-10-2012 08:01 AM

I'm in for some more Neon Green Candy Canes, this time they will make it into my daughter's Pico for sure! Haha!

I'd also be in for some pipe organ for the Pico as well.

Hey Ken,
I will take a look and see if I can frag another piece off my colony. As for the pipe I haven't tried to frag it yet. It has very long tubes and I am not sure how it will look fraged up.


Chris

Reefie 06-10-2012 11:55 PM

I'd only need 2-3 heads, as it is only a 4 Gal Pico.

No worries about the pipe organ.

Griffin 06-12-2012 11:25 PM

Hey guys, would love to join in on the swap meet. Unfortunatly i have nothing to sell as i just got my tank up and running again so i would be a buyer. Looking for zoo's, pulsing xenia, frogspawn, hammer, mushrooms - red, blue, fuzzy, small fish etc etc etc. I have live rock and its not very exciting. Anyways back in the game and look forward to meeting some new hobbiest and some old - that would be you Anthony :)
Could someone pm me the address.


Cheers
Richard

Hey Richard, where ya been? Good to see you back. Now I have to try to get over for sure, I haven't seen you in what? 25 years??

Griffin 06-13-2012 10:41 PM

Can't keep away apparently, my brother is in the game now aswell - he bought a place downtown and it had a built-in 350 gallon FOWLR and of course all the questions got me jump started again. He is going to join me at the swap as he wants to add some LPS after doing a big aquascape change and all the fish that came with his tank are reef friendly. I Had issues months ago and lost it all so i just shut the lights off and kept the salt level up. Was surprised to see that some zoa's survived from way back and opened up - they are almost clear in colour but alive. :)

pinhead 06-14-2012 12:43 AM

Show me the pictures!
 
I will be setting up a new thread and a link to a slideshow showing what people have for sale.

At the swap, there will be printouts or a slideshow showing what is available. This will allow you to see what the coral looks like when it is open.

The slides will look something like this:
http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h2...d1140/swap.jpg

PM me with the name of the coral, size, asking price and how many you have. Pictures would be great - try to find something on the web if you don't have an actual picture. If you don't have a picture, I would still like the information.

I can send you my email address if you need to attach some photos.

Link will go up as soon as I get some pictures.

BTW. The picture is a sample I found on the web - I don't have any of these.

Trading Frogspawn Frags
 
I am trading these two frogspawn frags. Trade for anything really, zoa, paly, acan, sps etc. I don't know how long I can spend at the meet so I would like to arrange a trade before hand if possible please. Thanks!
