PeeperKeeper Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Mark, thanks so much for hosting a great swap/meeting! Your tank is beautiful and I really appreciate you opening your home for this! I learned today it's better to take small pieces to a frag swap than bring the whole rock. Thanks Robin and Laura for helping me separate some of those green paly's into pieces people can actually fit in their tanks. Robin, I'm really excited about getting the pocillopora! Since seeing the big pieces of it in the show tank at Aquatek, it's been at the top of my want list. Don, I'm also excited about the rainbow monti. Can't wait to see what it looks like tomorrow after it's settled in a bit. I had to just acclimate all my stuff and leave since my tank's at my office, but I'm going down there tomorrow to see what it all looks like. Michael, thanks for the purple shrooms. I hope the little red guy you got spreads as well for you as it has for me. If not, let me know and there's more where that came from. I think it was cmanning I traded my green paly's for birdsnest with. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm trying to cement names and faces in my head. I have to work at that. Anyway, I hope everyone's trades made them as happy as mine did! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the birdsnest comes thru for you and if your candycanes don't recover...I've got plenty and clip off a frag. By the way, I've seen and read about cryptonite candy canes receding as you describe and wondering if it has anything to do w/Ph or KH?! I'll check more into it. It was nice meeting you as well. -Cindy- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+mcallahan Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 thanks to everyone showing up. The turnout was great, including people bringing tank and light setups so that you could see the frags as they might look in a tank. I was impressed! Plus I got to meet some new members and re-connect with some ones that I hadn't seen in a while. I look forward to hosting the next one and seeing everyone back again.

+mcallahan Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 There were 2 items left behind yesterday: - a sump of some sort. Looks like its a 30G Oceanic. - 2 ballasts - probably PC, maybe T5. If they are yours, let me know and we'll make plans to get them back to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirkgent001 Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 (edited) Mark, thanks for hosting, it was my first meeting an was cool to meet everyone there. Its going to take me a while to put names to screen names to faces. It dawned on me after I left that I had been to Mark's place once before. A few years ago I bought a 24" CADLights T5 strip from him intending to set up my first reef tank. I finally did, but a like 2 years later. Thanks again Mark! -Orlando Edited October 25, 2009 by dirkgent001 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just know most people by screen names, or you can always go, "hey you!" and see who turns around!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
