Hey, I'm a photographer! Bring your wife over and tell her you're doing formals with a few of your reefer buddies over here. Oh, while you're at it, you can pick up a few corals for the reception and have a reef themed wedding

I'll bring marinated chicken again -- that stuff went FAST last time. No reflection on me, I'm sure, as all the food disappears into hollow legs, purses, and the bottoms of coolers at Greg's swaps.

This time I'll do smaller pieces, though, so more people get some.

What is there, a wedding virus going around?

Are the reef tanks in the pre-nup agreement?

Ooops, I posted this in the wrong thread. Here's a repost:

I will be bringing:

Frogspawn, long-tentacle variety, branching green with pink tips. Large, 6 heads. $40

Large patch of pink so-called "encrusting gorgonian." Probably Erythropodium caribaeorum. About 4"x5", on rock. $25

Misc. discosoma mushrooms, $5/each. Probably mostly green, maybe some orange and blue/purple.

Small pieces of live rock, some with attached coral frags, plating coralline algae (probably Peyssonnelia sp.) and plenty of critters.

I may also have a harem of 4 yellow assessors (or a harem of 3 plus a single one) available, but they won't come to the swap unless sold. I am still evaluating the group to see if the odd man out will ever integrate happily. If available by then, they will be $200 for the full harem or $150/$50. Either a 3x or 4x harem will require a minimum tank size of 100g, in a quiet non-aggressive tank. (Or a breeding tank.)

I may also have baby clowns at the swap, unless they are all sold by then (which I hope they are!) My babies will be ready to go as soon as I get back in town next week... providing they survive the care of my neighbor. $12.50/each.

For my new seagrass/leather lagoon, I am looking for:
Algaes/seagrasses - Halophila ovalis, Halophila engelmannii and Halophila decipiens.
Gobies - Elacatinus puncticulatus (red head), Elacatinus multifasciatum (green-banded), Eviota guttata (red-striped aka spotted pygmy). Prefer captive bred.
Salarias fasciatus (lawnmower blenny)
Unusual Indo-Pacific leathers, either showcase size or frags.

NicoleC,

What kind of clown do you have? Can I get 2 from you? (Let me know if I shouldn't ask that question here, I am new).

I am looking for a good pair of clown to put in my tank. I do have LTA in my tank now.

I will be back in town after the business trip by end of the April (hopefully). -- Frankfurt is kindda far to do anything. Can you PM me?

Hey Sean, I have PMs turned off, so I can't send them either. My email address where you can contact me is fishyenta AT gmail DOT com (with the appropriate symbols instead of letters.)

Sorry, I was assuming everyone was following the news of my baby clowns. They are ocellaris clowns, at least 2nd generation captive bred. If you are in town this week, I have some bigger ones I'd like to move out before I go out of town.

I have soooo much stuff to swap this time...

I have been experiencing extreme overgrowth, so I really need to clear some stuff out.

I have about 3 or 4 full pink birdsnest colonies that are ready to be sold.

Lot's of my blue indochina stag.

A purple stag with bright blue tips is ready to frag...

A hot pink cluster millepora is ready.

A yellow green millepora

possibly a fuzzy tenuis

a purple tipped valida

and of course the always common

orange cap
green cap
orange monti

Possibly a piece of the "surf n turf" by greg carroll

A really cool yellow acro with rose tips

A blue green echinata

a acropora hyacithus table yellow/pink

this is all I can think of at the moment...

thanks a lot greg for doing this again!!!

Oh by the way I finally finished my cabinet, 14 feet long, 2 formal bookcases on each side of the tank, on the left the cabinet houses my refugium and calc reactor, on the right it houses my automated top off system + reserviour, and my kalk reactor.

I finally moved my chiller into the garage, so my upstairs is nice a quiet now.

A full years worth of work to build this thing...All oak with a red mahogany stain.

Frank

I wasn't talking about the fuzzy one, Julie, but the smooth discosomas. I know you have dibs on that fuzzy one should I ever manage to chisel it out!
