[Neoz]

What a great time today at the swap! Awesome corals, plenty of good conversions, tasty food and lots of deals to be had from the hosts of the swap Tim and Dave.

Lets post up some pictures of the goodies that were picked up at the swap. I'll be posting as soon as the corals get settled in and open up fully.

Some of the goodies I snagged,

Orange torch
Setosa
Red Hornets
Purple hornets
Pink Lemonade
Garf Bonsai
Rastas
Candy Apply Reds

Too much to chose from and not enough money for the super "good stuff" but I was happy to bring home a neon green nepthia, a chunk of anthelia, a couple of fighting conchs and a lawnmower blenny. One kid showed up with some awfully nice acans in his frag tank. The place was PACKED. Great food too! Thanks to Tim & Dave and the rest of the nice folks they had on hand working today. I don't think any one of them stopped for a rest in the four hours I was there today.

Dave, looks like I'll be calling you in about 3 months...

Which tank are you actually running at this time? Where you at with the 300?/New house?

 

[Neoz]

That nice acan tank was Johhny C. Him and Brent had some killer stuff.

Cully I'll be running this tank for sometime. I keep thinking of it as my grow out frag tank. We are still a ways from even starting to look at new houses. Were probably going to wait till my oldest daughter graduates. Until then I'll be storing up the funds and planning for the 300DD tank. How is your build going is a better question...

So my question is who purchased the happy ending acan from Kien? I was debating on it and it was gone 10 minutes later... That piece was something else.

Did razzmatazz ever show up? She was supposed to bring my a toadstool leather and said she would be there around noon. I was there at 10am and left at 2pm and I never saw her.

 

[Neoz]

I had a Torch to give to her and left that with Brandon because I had to leave. So she wasn't there when I left. When I last talked to her she was waiting on a delivery around 12:00pm. So not really sure..

Next time there's a frag swap, we should have nametags. I would have loved to meet some of you there today, but there were too many folks. It was packed. Thank you to Tim and Dave for such being such excellent hosts.

Have to agree with Blurry on this great people , food and everything else.

 

[naprestsleep]

Got a grape frogspawn, rainbow acan, green apple palys, three Lyretail Anthias and a ORA spotted mandarin. Also got some needed dry good and food. Spent twice my budget, so it was a good day till I have to pay for it all.

The lady and I had a blast on our first frag swap. Sold 95% and donated the rest to our local reef shop

The guys at ABC were great as always...

Glad that I got one of those torches before you scarfed em for once!

[Johnny C]

Had a great time today, saw some old friends and met plenty of new ones. If Brent wouldn't have overslept, we would have been there even sooner!

Thanks to the guys of ABC, I'm glad to see that the hard work is paying off. I'm going to put that Bleeding Apple Scoly on my christmas wish list!

 

[davidpesce]

Awesome time today! I wish there was a more formal introduction to the reef central people. Would've loved to put faces to the names on here.

 

[aquadonkey]

I had a great time today!!
Got some great stuff:

black sun coral
dendro
frogspawn (orange-ish)
lepto
pink shroom

will post pics later
I'm especially happy that I even managed to get the black sun coral to eat today. Going to take a lot less time to get it opening nicely than my yellow when I first got it.

I saw a few of you - even was brave enough to put on a name-tag after a bit.
Eppie (the beagle) and my husband had a lovely time as well (especially when the food was brought out!!)

It was great seeing ABC - thanks guys for hosting this event!!
