Anyone need an electric flame scallop?

Anyone want to trade either a VERY small fragmented piece of common SPS or perhaps some fragment piece of soft coral variety that I don't have for an electric flame scallop? I purchased it without properly measuring the available space within my pico reef, and seeing as how I temporarily forgot how they like to move around a bit when I purchased it, I feel he must go. Otherwise, it's just plain cruel keeping him in a space so small. I doubt they'd take him back at the LFS, which is why I thought I'd turn to the Tampa reefers. I'm located in North Tampa.

You may be in the wrong place. Look under reef clubs, than Tampa Bay. You should have better luck there.
 
Well, I've made some room for my scallop so I think I've decided to keep it, as I don't think I'll find any corals with that vivid of an orange-color, and I'm trying to have as many colors as I can in one tank. As for soft corals, anything that doesn't spread overly quick would be good, as I have a small pico reef. As for what I already have, green clove polyps, brown/orange tinted zooanthids, blue sponge, brownish-colored Acropora SPS, reddish colored mushroom, electric flame scallop, yellow polyps (Forget what they're called). I'm looking for frags of things that have the following colors, aren't more than semi-aggressive, and don't get overly large (Like leather corals do)....peach, pink, blue, vivid green, vivid reds. I can't fit a whole lot in my tank right now so it'd have to be an "exceptionally" small piece, but I'm willing to pay some of course. I really think I'd love to have some of those colorful Ricordia mushrooms that I saw in the "good" tank at the Itchystuff's place, but I suppose I'm dreaming to be able to get that within my cost-cutting budget. Anyway, do you live in the Tampa area?

are you talking about the green ones in the sps tank? I have some of thoses. anyway most of the stuff I have are heavy growers,leathers,colts, xenia, shrooms, things of that sort. I have sps but they are no where near ready to frag.OH BTW, yes I do live in TPA over by the airport.If I can help at a later date with sps I will let you know. I don't know if any of my sps will work in your tank though because i have 400watt MH, Dont know what you have..
Good luck,

I have 17 watts of Compact Flourescents (Including a partial actinic) above a 1.5 gallon tank. (About 4 inches from the water level). I do have a piece of Acropora that seems to be thriving under it, so I think my tank may be SPS friendly. At least to a hardier species like Acropora. The ones from his SPS tanks that I was referring to were the Ricordia species. They look kind of like "bubble-mushrooms." PS--The brown Zooanthids I have are brown, but the parts that stick out around the head are an orangish-color. Kind of neat, but BOY do they grow like wildfire!
