Who can check out corals and How do I get mine

Who can check out corals and How do I get mine

Pertaining to the donor program:


A) the rule of 5:

In order to help have frags available for everyone,
we request you not have out more than 5 frags at any one time. If you have out 5 and return 3 (of the frags you checked out, not other donations) you may check out 3 more.


B) receiving corals from the donor program:

1) you need to be a current year paid COMAS member;

2) you need to have a stable tank with
the appropriate equipment/lighting to keep the frag alive;

3) you need to be willing to grow the frag until it propogates naturally
or you can frag it, then bring a frag back to the program;

4) you need to be willing to return the corals you haven't fragged if you break down your tank;

5) please inform the fragmaster if you loose a coral (hey, it happens);

6) you are encouraged to join those that help keep this program going by donating to the program as you trim frags from your tank(s).
