Can any acro lovers lend me a hand tomorrow afternoon?

[GraffitiSpotCorals]

So I have ordered a LOT of acropora for me and to share with a few friends which is coming tomorrow afternoon and I need some help acclimating and preping them to the tank. It's supposed to arrive at 1 but most of the time that never happens to plan. It's been in the air for a while so I need to be quick and by myself it will take forever.

I need someone who is familiar with acropora pests and knows the signs of unhealthy coral and at least some of the hitchhikers that can come in on them. I need someone that can help me make sure everything looks good and knows how to handle these corals. Plus playing with a huge variety of acros is always fun when another acro lover is with you

I also need to move some lights around and do some wire management if time allows it. I prefer to have someone I have dealt with come over but really just need the help.

 

Just text me if your willing to help and I will make it worth your while. I feel bad asking here but a friend had an emergency and backed out on me. It may take three hours if the flight lands on time.

No one can come help? Going to pick up soon. Please call if you can.

I wish I didn't start work at 1pm..

[GraffitiSpotCorals]

Doh! That's how it works when I post last min. The coral got bumped back a day and my wife is working so I am all alone in this I guess. My two reefing buddies moved out of town too :(

[GraffitiSpotCorals]

Found someone, thanks guys.

Wish I could help, Paul. But I'm still homebound for the most part. Good luck with the shipment. PM me with any observations you have if you get the chance.

Wish I lived in VA. I'd love to help with these kinds of things. Not much anything near me.

Yes everything came in looking the same as always

Paul, you should talk with Brendan at Pure Reef Systems- he has a mostly empty holding facility not too far from you....

[GraffitiSpotCorals]

Why would I need holding facility? Maybe if he is willing to apologize and work around the problems we've had back when I had to file a fraud claim on him for not finishing a large protein skimmer that I needed built. Honestly I really wish that relationship would work out really well because we're both into the same kind of stuff and probably could help each other out but I kind of got the wrong end of the deal on the last purchase I tried to make from him. Anyways it's not a holding tank I need I already have a system setup to hold a lot of acropora. Thanks for chiming in though if you ever need help with anything let me know and if you talk to him and he has anything to say let me know.

[zygote2k]

I didn't know the relationship had gone bad. Sorry to hear.

[GraffitiSpotCorals]

Yes it's not your fault. Just I don't hand over that much money to never even see my product, or pictures of it. I wasn't even allowed to come to the shop to see it being made.

But when we first started talking he mentioned he had a lot of acros coming in and needed my help to hold them til his tank was ready.... I don't know but .Y tank crashed because I never got the skimmer. I wouldn't recommend anyone go to him for anything as small as a gasket or airline tubing...
