OUsnakebyte January 27, 2005 Share January 27, 2005 This may be a stupid question, but this seems to be a pretty brotherly organization, and I was wondering as for the frags we bring....things such as zoos and other smaller stuff.....do you guys try to frag them into really small pieces as to spread the wealth or it doesnt really matter? I try to spread the wealth b/c I remember starting out with nothing in my tank, and this being an expensive hobby, it was very hard to stock. So, I am sympathetic to those with bare tanks who want more. Plus, if you ever (and I know it is taboo to mention the "C" word...) have a tank crash, it is nice to have some of your original stock in other people's tanks. Believe me, I remember those who have hooked me up in the past, and I am more than willing to help them restock if something happens. I think a fantastic goal of this organization would be to have frags of every species in the club in every member's tank. It's a little wild I know, but given enough time and generous people, very doable.... Finally, I would much rather get something from a fellow hobbiest's tank that is established and doing well than have to take from the ocean. It reduces pressure on the reefs, and it is almost guaranteed to be hardier and more established than something wild collected - a win/win IMO...

Caribbean Jake January 27, 2005 Share January 27, 2005 Michael, Sam, Joe I will soon be posting pics of my corals on the gallery. I can also email those pictures directly to your email accounts provided you send me your email to jskoff@mcdean.com. LMK. Hopefully by 1/28 the pics should be up.

michaelg January 27, 2005 Author Share January 27, 2005 I think on the frag sizes, it really depends what it is to be honest. People will give you a gallon size bag of xenia or some of the other "weed" corals.... The slower growing ones, frags generally will be smaller. Type of coral also will have an impact on how big of a piece the frag will be. By and large though, I'd say the frags that are traded local here are much bigger than frags people sell over the internet. Also depends if person is clearing room or whatnot. We have a table that people can just put freebies on for anyone to take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest D33rex January 28, 2005 Share January 28, 2005 Several people have sent me emails to set up trades for the meeting. On each of the emails there is a link, but when I click it, I just get an error screen. I don't know if theres something wrong with my email or if I can check these messages on this website? If you are one of these people this is why I have not responded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaelg January 29, 2005 Author Share January 29, 2005 the messages are probably being generated through the PM (private message) system that the board has- look in the upper right hand corner when in the forums- there you will see "Your Messenger"= click on that to enter the PM system. Some people do not wish to have their e-mail accessable, so use this system if that is the case- they will get an e-mail notification that you sent a message. Hope that helps.

Guest reverai January 30, 2005 Share January 30, 2005 In a response to an email. My Tonga rock rubble isn't alive as it is what was left over from setting up another tank. It's small pieces. Ranging from very small to about an inch or two. Oh...and I only have about 100 watts of light right now which precludes anything but lower light things.....
