Clean up crew from Dr. Mac's

[Gordonious]

I will be buying a clean up crew at Dr. Mac's tomorrow or the next day. The bigger I buy the cheaper it is. I already have my brother and a friend or two to get in or it. I was looking at <A HREF="http://www.pacificeastaquaculture.com/Detail.aspx?ID=140&ReturnPage=%2fShowProductCategory.aspx%3fCategoryId%3d4%23I+1043">B1 on his website</A>. I can't wait a month till the trip for the main crew, but I will probably get an emerald crab and a conch then.

I'm may get in. I was also waiting for the trip to pick up a cleaner package. Mostly interested in snails and cuc and a shrimp or 2

 

[Gordonious]

Steph told me to ask you if you wanted to get in so I'm glad you saw the post, lol. emonemo420 sending you a pm back now.

I can use some peppermint shrimp - just bought 2 off Ebay but they were too small and turned in to a light snack for my hogfish.

Ok, going to try to keep this simple. I want to try to see if we can split things evenly. If someone wants %25 of what we are getting they can pay %25. The price will depend on how many people get in on it and how much people want.

Going to make some phone calls and then make another post.

 

[emonemo420]

well depending on what u get and how many u can give i need maybe like 3-4 snails if u are getting ne and maybe 5-6 snails??? idk if u can give them up let me know how much lol if i can afford it

Trying to figure it out, but really need to know how much Al is looking to get. I am currently thinking of not going to Mac's until Wed., so we can figure this out and I can also drive straight up north to drop everything off. (I need to be down here tomorrow night for my Dad's birtday dinner.)

*30 Gallon-$129.00

*50 Gallon-$149.00

*75 Gallon-$189.00

*125 Gallon-$329.00

*180 Gallon-$449.00

Figured I would post the link with the prices
Was looking for mostly snails/conchs. If we decide to split the package in quarters or fifths does anyone want to trade my hermit crabs for more snails and conchs? Also I dont think I have a deep enough sand bed for the cuccumber(only 1.5 inches deep)
So I may not be able to use them. Will send an email to Dr Mac to see what he thinks.

Craig, I am probably going to end up with two pep shrimp, so I could probably just sell you one of mine for a bit cheaper then the normal price if that's all you really wanted to get.

I'm starting to question if my brothers tank is ready or not for a clean up crew. I'm not sure that his tank properly cycled, so I am going to go over there tomorrow night check out his tank and talk with him. We will see.

emonemo420 I think the way we will end up breaking things down you'll end up with a good starter pack, but it really depends.

I was thinking of possibly going just to get a couple of things myself and then picking up the cleaner pack on Saturday so we can work things out. The only thing is I wouldn't be able to drive up and down the state again on Saturday, but if emonemo420 is already planning going to Mac's perhaps Al and emonemo could meet somewhere?

I'm currently spending most of my time in Lewes. I don't mind making another trip out to Dr. Mac's, but after I go there the second time I would have no reason to drive up north. I am going to send Dr. Mac an e-mail and find out if he will be alright putting the critters in at least two different bags. I also want to ask what happens if he is out of a particular item in the pack.

So if you guys could take up the part of the clean up pack that goes up north that would be great.

 

[Gordonious]

Well tomorrow is Saturday. <A HREF="http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1169577">I asked Dr. Maca bit ago if he would bag things separate for us and he said he would be able to. He also said he should have everything in stock. </A>

I dropped by there a couple days ago to pick up a couple of things. Before I left my mother handed me some money for my birthday. I'll post a pic in a moment of what I brought home with the extra money.

I am going to figure out out now the best deal as far as the clean up crew. Just wanted to post early and make sure Jocephus and emonemo420 were still planning on coming and ask what time.

How does everyone feel about waiting a month or two and ordering from <A HREF="http://www.reeftopia.com/Crabs_and_Snails218.html">reeftopia</A>? Ken was planning on placing an order later this year. And their prices seem a lot cheaper. I think I've made up my mind to wait.
