Reefcleaners and/or more BRS

[zeroinverse]

So I ordered BRS stuff for a few people, the algae cleaner blades...

But I realized I also need to buy an APEX reef controller. Anyone else need anything from BRS?

Also, for my prop tank, I need some cleanup crew (I think). Planning to place order with reef cleaners.

Anyone have idea on what CUC to put in a propagation tank?

Ron,

I could go for some cleanup Crew. Did all you're Berghia die?

 

[zeroinverse]

Bob,

They did not die. Well, the breeding ones did probably because they were too old. I had another generation take its place, but that batch recently died. I have put into my tank maybe 5-8 adults. I think they are surving, but not sure.

And I now have some juveniles growing up. I had some pod contaminated batches where the pods I think ate all the eggs. Hitchhiker larvae or juveniles in the water when I transfer the egg clutches.

But did you need some?

As for ordering, I would order for delivery Saturday and then either hold onto bags till Sunday or transfer to plastic containers for you (on your request).

I will figure out how to do the group buy from reef cleaners.

Are you going to be ordering things with overnight shipping or just snails in the snail mail?

I would like to get a few things from there. Ill look at the site and see what I need.

 

[zeroinverse]

Hermits and such... So probs Ly overnight shipping

 

[zeroinverse]

Bob: what's your situation with berghia. Did you still want to try a few more? You took the set last time, right? Any luck with those?

I have read it takes like 5~6 months before you see any potential decrease...

But not sure.

 

[thysrof]

Ron,

Sounds good on both. I will take some clean up crew and get them from you at the meeting. Whatever it takes to get the deal just let me know how much.

Yes I need some Berghia. The baby's you gave me didn't make it.One actually made it almost 3 weeks. So if you can bring some to the meeting I got cash.

Thanks

How much do I owe you?

 

[zeroinverse]

How much do I owe you?

$23.38
($11.69 for the blade scraper and $11.69 for the 10-pack blades)

 

[lokii_37]

Ill take 3 emerald crabs and 10 Florida cerith.

For those that want to order from ReefCleaners, tell me if you want me to order for you.

Since Express Mail shipment does not deliver on Sunday, that means I will have to have them ship to me to receive Saturday. That means there will be a day when I can either

1) Leave them in bags but float them in water until the meetup on Sunday
2) Take them out of bags and put them in plastic containers with "vent holes" acclimated to my tank water.
3) Place an order up in WCR area for all of you guys to pick up locally in Petaluma/Santa Rosa on Saturday.

Happy to help you all get stuff if you don't mind the "hold in my tank somehow" on Saturday night.

============
Here is what I am thinking of ordering.

(A) 1000 dwarf ceriths $75 (that's $0.075, 7.5cents each)
(I don't need all 1000, so maybe I can split with a few people).

(B) 50 blue leg hermit crabs
(C) 20 nerite snails
(D) ?? empty hermit shells

============

 

[thysrof]

I will take some of A,B,and C. That is a lot of A. I would guess I would take 100

 

[lokii_37]

I'm fine with you holding my critters in your tank until the meet.

Ill drop the ceriths from mine and ill take about 100 of the dwarfs you get. Ill also take some of the hermits if there will be enough.

I'm interested to see how bang dwarfs you actually get. Last time I ordered I was supposed to get 50, I stopped counting at 100.

Hello Ron,
When are placing both orders BRS and Reefcleaners?
Best,
Mike

 

[zeroinverse]

Mike,
Reefcleaners probably order on Tuesday/Wednesday of next week for Saturday delivery (need to confirm they can ship for delivery Saturday).

BRS, maybe this Sunday. (unless I decide to buy another Apex setup elsewhere)

 

[thysrof]

Ron,

I think I will take

40 ceriths 15 hermits and 5 nerites

 

[zeroinverse]

Nick, the hermits are not "bulk lots", so we can order as many as you want. How many you want?

Here are the orders so far:

(A) bulklot 1000 dwarf ceriths $75 (that's $0.075, 7.5cents each)
Lokii: about 100 ceriths
Thysrof: about 40 ceriths
Zero: remaining balance

(B) blue leg hermit crabs
Zero: 50
Thysrof: 15

(C) nerite snails
Zero: 20
Thysrof: 5

(D) Empty hermit shells
Zero: 100

(E) Emerald crabs
Lokii: 3

Current total: $157.01
We need like another $20 to get free shipping.
====================

Anyone else want to order?

PS
Sounds like I can only order for Friday delivery (Reefcleaners does not do Saturday arrival/deliveries at this time).
Which means I will unpack them and put them into perforated plastic containers for water/air circulation. They'll be acclimated in my tank until Sunday when we meet.

If any of you want to back out, that is ok with me also.

 

[lokii_37]

Ill take 10 of the blue leg hermits.

We are so close to free shipping we might as well add some other stuff. After my hermits we will be only $15 bucks away and shipping is $28

Anyone else?
Plan to place order Monday around 11am.

I may not be doing the BRS order for now. But planning to do reefcleaners.
