It is offical. After a few delays and such all is ready to go..

The 2nd annual Sps Growing Challange is to begin.

ok i have collected to corals and held them for a few months to insure health. I must say a few a looking to good and i do not want to get rid of. Once again searching for these corals were very hard to find. large, stable, potentail, diversity factors were all considered. so i hope every is happy with the selection.

Here is how it works.
Everyone will need to fill out a sheet of paper with the folling info
rc name. true name
email address
tank size and water volume
nsw or salt mix brand
light info.. t-5, halides. leds.. etc.
skimmer info
colony id guess of the 4 pieces..prize involved
perhaps a few others..

Cost is 25.00 this will include 4 frags until corals fragments run out. all fragments are pre mounted on plugs. once everyone gets frags they will be put into catagories baised upon tank sizes. what we are looking for is best color and growth overall but other prizes wil be offered throught the contest to keep particpation up. judging will be done at Reefapoolza.

*growth and color will be considered visually but all corals will be weighed before going out*

so far we have the following sponsors whom have commited to helping out with some nice prizes

Amazing Reefs and Aquariums
Aquarium in motion Fullerton
Aquarium in motion Riverside
Fantasy Coral
Marine Depot.
So Cal Tropocil Fish
more to come as well.

coral number four.. another deepwater table. this one is a very nice peice. color should be interesting on this, compaired to where it was 2 months ago.

well i am estimating about enough corals for 50ish peeps. so these will go quick. in a previous gauging interest threat i had 39 names interested at that time in november. yes a long time ago. it was very hard to find corals and i already lost 2 in the first try.
please note club peeps get first dibs so that is why it starts offically next friday at SCMAS meeting. after that paypal/ cash will reserve a spot. =) until corals are all gone
please no pms. post here with questions and comments. thanks all.

anyone interested in helping with distrubution spots let me know. last time i drove over 250 miles getting rid of these things. lol.
 
So Rich, where do we send our entries? We are in MASVC out here in Ventura and would be willing to help distribute frags if you need some help driving them around.
 
I would also like to participate if there is room after your SCMAS meeting. Thanks for coordinating.
 
sharpermike.. i will need someone in that area to help distribute, thanks in advance for the help i will keep you posted on the hmm chaos.
 
I wanna play! I am not a member (yet..) but will probably go to the meeting. Do you plan on handing out at the meeting? or just sign ups/payments? I think if you distributed at the meeting, it would save you a lot of driving ;)
 
Nice Richard. Count me in. I won't be able to make the meetings but you know I am good for one set :D Once again, LMK if you need anything shipped.

I'm not a member yet but I would definitely like to join.

Where do we meet to pick up frags, payment, and info?

Any distribution points around the 310 or 714 area?
 
I'm interested in joining. When/where do we paypal after the SCMAS meeting? I'll volunteer to be a holding tank for Irvine pickup's if necessary as well.
