JamesL Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 You can bring equipment/coral and trade it for other coral/equipment. Or you can bring cash and trade that for said equipment/coral Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+dapettit Posted June 3, 2011 Author Share Posted June 3, 2011 or you can take cash for your frags/equipment. So you can trade or buy, or trade or sell. Now i'm confused Dave- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Dustin Blevins Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I'm definitely going to try to come to this. I'm new to saltwater and I'd really like to see what people are working with and maybe I can find stuff to help me start out! When you say the cards are there does that mean for people that have already paid to pick up there or could I pay there? Looks like there are some awesome benefits with it!

theresa Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Hey everyone, what do you think about having a table set-up where everyone can bring pictures of their tanks for us to see? Does anyone have a pop-up tent or two they could birng to set-up in the back yard? Bring the kids as well, we will have the jumper up for the kids. Chuck and I will also have grill going with hot dogs and hamburgers again. I have blind up on the back porch, we will not have to nail up sheets to block the sun out like we did last time. If you want to jump in pool, bring your own towel Okay? Thanks everyone. theresa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
