frag tank at Aquatic Concepts

One of the stores that give card carrying members a discount (10%) is aquatic concepts. They had some nice small frags in the $5-$15 range lately. pink zoos, poly's, are some examples.

He did say that you traded with him. Bill is making some great changes in the store.

Laurie, he is located in Westbrook. I don't have the address handy but the next time you go to Uber Frags Dot Net; it is listed in the favorite LFS thread.

LMAO, you guys are so funny! Matt tried to trade them on here, before he took them into the LFS if I remember right. They were awesome frags- I would have snapped them up, but I have the same morphs in the tank already.

Personally, I like buying from everybody- LFS, OFS, and hobbyists. Means more places to check for cool new stuff!

Although eliminating the middle man is what the frag auction is all about, my tank has been surviving for about 6 months off of store credit at Concepts. It finally ran out. I really like the idea of a store that promotes tank raised frags and I always felt he paid a fair price as well.

Thanks again.
I like the idea as well, trading for credit. I seems like it supports the the store and the hobby at the same time. But I like buying from whoever, as long as they seem/are reputable.

I'd like to donate a small frag pack for the auction, how do I go about that? I work overnight weekends, so I can't get them to the auction, or at least no earlier than 2pm.

That's awesome! Thank you for being so generous!

I plan on getting into town early that day- if you like I can swing by and grab them on my way, or if youare coming around 2pm, that is fine as well... It willtake us a while to get through everything!!!

I might be able to pick them up as well. I must admit the pup is taking most of my focus at the moment. In the past (as mentioned by Laurie) it has taken a while for everybody to arrive, display there studd, snack, chat, so the auction usually doesn't get rolling for a bit. Let us know.

Here is a pup picture. Her name is Esponja (Spanish for Marshmallow or Sponge). She is so good!



Anybody who come to the frag auction is welcome to play with her. She is very nice to dog and seem especially fond of small ones. (Is this shameless exploitation of a cute flufffy puppy to get more folks to come to the auction?)

I'm really starting to look forward to it!

This is a bit of thred hijacking, but if her hips check out I may breed her. Does anybody know a folks with a male Great Pyrenees. Preferably a very nice one that has at least some testing done for genetic faults.

She's adorable and Great Pyrenees are always great with kids. She looks just like a marshmallow. See you and her then. Sue
