I am bringing some donor items to this meeting and wanted to alert folks ahead of time so that they have a chance show up if they are next on the list. I suggest that others bring things along add their items to this list as well...
Click pics for photos on flickr. From there, click on "All Sizes". And then you can see a larger version of these pics.
I apologize to our frag directors for not finding the donor threads.

Pavona
And no, the frag in this pic is NOT the frag I am bringing. Rather, it is from the parent colony. The frag is a smaller piece that had broken off and I glued to a rock. It seems to be very resilient. I will either have 1 or 2 of these frags.
If anyone has a piece of this Pavona with Green tips, I would love some.

Ricordea
I don't know if these are in the frag program. These were given to me by a friend who bought them off of someone in Stillwater. Whatever the case, they have been reproducing like mad in my tank and I wanted to spread the Ricordea love. These seem to split for me (and my friend who still has some) at a rate of close to every month or 2. And I seem to notice that they often split into 3, not 2.
Depending how many our on this rock,

Zoanthids
Again, I have no idea if these are on the donor program. I am pretty sure that they are not. Whatever the case, I think they are very pretty and plan to cut up the rock in this pic. I expect to result in 2-3 smaller rocks that I will bring up as donor frags.


Halimeda
I love this little calcareous algae. Halimeda is a calcium based algae that, according to my research, should be considered sort of like having another LPS coral in your tank (in terms of calcium requirements). Anyhow, I will have 3-4 pieces of this with me, for anyone interested.
It has grown VERY well for me. It does, btw, require a sandy bottomed tank. I believe finer grained sands are better, but don't remember completely.
