As some of you may have heard, Aquatic Specialists has bowed out of the swap this year. And my apologies to this new vendor for not getting their information out when we initially got with them, but we feel very fortunate to be able to announce that Dr Mac / Pacific East Aquaculture was chosen to fill the vacated vendor spot. Pacific East Aquaculture always has some very cool stuff, and lots of it. This addition is sure to add value to your swap experience this year.
As we approach the swap date, please keep a few things in mind. Bring small bills. $1s, $5s, $10s and $20s. Courtesy to the sellers by not requiring them to make change for large bills is something we always try to encourage. The swap opens at Noon. We hope to have CORA Swap Committee personnel outside the building before hand to take your entrance fee, so we can streamline your getting into the swap when it does open. Please have your $5 in exact change ready. Please be respectful to everyone else. Sometimes, especially at the beginning, it can get a little crowded, especially with people walking around with coolers.
Also, sellers, especially early bird sellers, take some time and go over the expectations and requirements for setting up at this year's swap. This includes water volume maximums, as well as heating and light expectations. Remember, you must keep your goods on top of the tables. Do not put things out in front of your table. This is a safety issue first and foremost, but also cuts down on the isle width we are trying to maintain for everyone's convenience.
We will have a full kitchen going with hotdogs, chili dogs, sloppy joes and chicken sandwiches, along with chips, soda and water. Bring an appetite as all sales benefits CORA. A second building behind the main swap area will be available for anyone wanting to get out of the madness for awhile to eat peacefully, or just chat in a more relaxed environment. Feel free to take advantage of that extra space for that, but do not setup any frags for sale there.
Most of all-ENJOY YOURSELVES!! While it is allot of work for the swap committee, and I would like to thank all of them for their help this year, we all do it so all of you have a great time and go home with a ton of frags for your tank. Thank you to everyone planning to attend this year for helping make the CORA All Ohio Frag Swap another successful annual event for our club. If you are a Central Ohio resident and are not yet a member of CORA, you can do so by visiting our website at www.corareef.org or becoming a member at this year's swap. There will be a member's table up near the main raffle stage where you can get questions about the club answered and/or pay your membership dues. We hope to see everyone next Sunday.

Sunday, Sunday, Sunday!!!!!! This IS the main event this weekend for sure. Be sure not to blow your cash before Sunday. Looks like there will be some stellar corals and I'm sure some sweet deals from vendors and swappers alike.

Sunday, Sunday, Sunday!!!!!! This still IS the place to find the BEST deals this weekend for sure. Be sure not to blow your cash before Sunday. Looks like there will be some stellar corals and I'm sure some sweet deals from vendors and swappers alike.
When you get to the swap and pay your entry fee, you will be given a name tag with your username on it. Be sure to wear it somewhere visible, as that is how other swappers are going to be able to find you easily. MAKE SURE YOU GET A NAME TAG! Those arriving early and waiting in line will be able to pay and get your name tag prior to the doors opening. That way when Noon arrives you can just walk in and start buying away.
Special THANKS to the Frag Swap Committee that will be taking time out to help run everything Sunday. We will have a membership table up where you can find out more about CORA and even become a member, a 50/50 raffle going that is sure to be a nice haul for someone and a full kitchen with sandwiches, chips, pop, water and COFFEE. See everyone in a few days.

Sunday is only a couple days away now!!!!!! This is THE PLACE to find THE BEST deals this weekend for sure. Be sure not to blow your cash before Sunday, and to bring it to The CORA All Ohio Frag Swap at The Grotto for the best selection of corals anywhere in Central Ohio, ALL UNDER ONE ROOF. Looks like there will be a huge variety of stellar corals and I'm sure some very sweet deals from our wide selection of vendors and swappers. Some of the eye candy showing up on frag swapper and some of the vendor forums requires very dark sunglasses!
See everyone Sunday.

BIG Thanks to the frag swap committee for a great job today. Joe and Tim working the raffle table, Amber and family manning a very busy kitchen that even required okkiedokki's better half to make more than one trip up to Giant Eagle to restock on hotdogs and buns, and everyone else on the committee that helped out today. Briney Dave even made the trip down from Fremont and was sitting in the parking lot at 7:30 when I got there to help setup. Without all of you this event, simply put, wouldn't happen.
Thank You from all the officers and BOD :beer:
