free macro

Hi, I put a thread up in the ANCHOR forum about this, but I have quite a bit of macro that I am happy to give away. Most everything I have at school is based on donations from the community, and things are starting to go well, and I hope to be able to give things back over the next several months.

Anyways, I have a decent amount of macro algae to give away if anyone wants some. I have plenty to start a plant tank or fuge. Take a look here and it's free.

I can give some to someone for the next meeting to pass out to others, or you can pick it up. This is what I have to give away...sorry don't know the names. After I write these silly names, look at the link below to understand what the heck I'm talking about.

The green Mexican Calupera something....
2 types of green blade algae (fat and fatter)
The grapish (flat not round?) green Calupera
TONS of flat, red algae that I've been told is nori (5 gallons with no water - the tanks go WILD for it)
chaeto
red graci-something
I have SOOO many pods (sick amounts), spaghetti worms and some other little things I can throw in too.

Just let me know. In a couple months, I'll be giving much of this to LFS so they keep me happy with food, damsels, and other things for school. I seriously think at this rate (I'm sure I'll screw it up somehow), that I can give this much away every 1-2 months.

Again, thanks to all that have helped so much.

PS - Hopefully those beautiful reds will be plentiful enough that I can hand it out to everyone and we can all make a few bucks on eBay --- you ever seen what that sells for? wacky!
 
Also, not to be rude...it is more or less "first come, first server" by PM, but if someone who has given my class things wants something ... they WILL be bumped to the front. I owe big-time!

I would love to have some of the Scinaia complata but you live too far.
Maybe next time .. keep the good work. :)
 
LOL I haven't given any away! I'm giving some to 2 folks in Spring Hill.. What do you want and I'll let you know. I don't know the names still, lol...so bare (bear?) with me. I'll try to learn them!!!!
 
a mixture would be nice with some pods. I figure since i cannot get the Chaeto to grow, i would try something else. When would i be able to get it? I am working in Zephyrhills today and wouldnt be able to make the drive today. Is it avail tomorrow?
 
I'm on spring break (starting 12 minutes ago --- wOOt!) and live next to the school...so basically (except Mon-Wed when I'm at the beach), just let me know when you want to come by and I'll be around.
 
What kind of red? The leafy stuff? Let me get stuff out to these other 2 and I'll give you next dibs...especially after all you were trying to do for my class. To spend that much time to try to do something for others...that's amazing. I wish more were like that (including myself!).

BTW...I'm finally to the point I'm fragging corals! For those of you have known me here for the last year, that's a big deal. We're now fragging a few zoas, candy canes, big @$$ branching frogspawn. Fun stuff!!!!
 
Thank you so much for the Macro. 99% of it i put into my refuge, and the other 1% into the main display. The yellow tang especially loves the red stuff u gave me.

thanks again
Ben
