[ZoeReef]

I'm looking for a long stem frogspawn (don't know the correct term). Looking for color, ideally neon green w/pink tips. If anyone has any, I would like to bid on that at the auction.

[clkwrk]

Here are some of my items that I will be bringing to the auction .These are from my tank and are not prop corals.

I still have RED BUGS so its your choice to bid or not. I will dip all frags in TMPCC. It is your responsibility to do your own treatment as should be done with any new coral.

I posted pics of what the colonies look like so you can get a better idea of what a frag can grow into .

Okay here goes

Very very cool blue thin branching stag with blue and green plyps with plum base Small ½ inch fragment $20 First time fragging next time in another 3 months as this is one of my favorites.

[AZreefkeeper]

Looks like it will be a very expensive weekend for me. lots of eye candy so far.
I am trying to close the coffee shop at noon so I can make this.
looking fwd to meeting most and seeing everything available.

[aztbs]

I have had so much interest in this little guy so he is up for auction:

http://projectbat.com/Aquarium/bta.jpg

It is a clone Rose Bubble Tip that split off two weeks ago today. The mouth is healed up very well and it is eating solid foods again. It is currently 3-4 inches across but will open larger. Before the split, the main anemone was opening 8-9 inches across at least so you have to have a big tank for it.

It gets chunks of silversides or cocktail shrimp soaked in vitamins like selcon or zoe-con every 4-6 days and a blast of mysis/cyclop-eeze frequently when I feed my fish.

Must go to a mature tank. Starting price $10

[AZreefkeeper]

whats the asking price/starting price?
are you bringing it to the swap on the 10th?

thanks
vince

[aztbs]

Starting price of $10 added to my post. Yes, it will be in the auction this saturday.

Oops, re-reading my post I see I goofed. the statement "6+ branches" should be on the description for the blue/green acro #4 not for #3.

Sorry for the confusion.

[random_ryan]

zoa's zoa's zoa's.....lol... hey how much does the medications cost to get rid of bugs and worms...I don't want to miss out on corals becouse I am afraid of bugs.

[clkwrk]

do you have sps? If not no worries.

[joeyf]

I originally wasn't going to go, cause my PC bulbs took a dive, so nothing has grown in my tank, but I ordered my new T5's, and they should be in next week, so I will be good to buy some stuff.

I will be bringing 3 frags of neon green nephthea. This is the only thing in my tank that has shown growth in the last 2 months. I used to call this sinularia, since that's the name I bought it under, but I have never seen another sinularia that looks like it, especially since it has grown out to be almost 12-14" across. Fliger's post a few weeks ago confirmed a new ID of neon green nephthea. Starting bid, as always $1.

[random_ryan]

I have acros in my tank . and a horn coral. along with leathers and brains and leptastres. and monti and hammer and galaxcy. polyps,zoa's, musrooms, ect . so would I need treat anything that comes into my tank.

[moore_rb]

Well, looks like I'm sitting this meeting out. My wife has a baby shower that day so I'm playing Major Dad, and I ain't bringing a two month old with me to the auction... :p

Just as well. I have no frags to offer this month, and I won't risk putting another coral in the 70 with it's overall health still a big question mark...

The 140 will be cranking full bore by the September auction, and my birthday is in Septmeber, so I'll be coming to bid!

All you PROP farmers better have a good crop to offer at the next auction.... otherwise I'll be coming straight to your houses armed with stacks of tupperware....

:cool:

[nov8tve]

I'll bring lots of beginner corals!

Lots of Kenyan Trees
Couple of Pink fast plusing Xenias
and a huge flower anemone, about 8" across!

All can start for $1. I'll try and put some pictures up later.

[Reefmaiden]

Thanks for posting the pics Phil. Unfortunately I think I already have a large colony of that one. Hopefully someone else will be interested in it...

Would love to get a frag of that pink birdsnest someday if you are interested in a trade of any kind..... :)

[random_ryan]

I hopefully will be sending my polyps with someone since my plans have changed since I do have children.

[bginop]

I am going to bring a pair of "paired" true percula clowns. I need to get rid of them for their safety and I wanted to make sure they have a good home.

I think the starting bid will begin at 20 bucks, because the fish are paired.

[brbegle]

I can give them a great home, I'll be bidding on them. Woohoo, only eight and a half hours until the auction! LOL.

[frontosa_man80]

tubs true blues that we are bringing have 10 to 12 heads on it.
