Not sure if I have to work this weekend or not but I should be there with a few others.

We are always honored to have people from such far distances show up. Your coming from Blommington IL. to our frag swap, that's pretty cool man. I give you a :thumbsup: for it!!
 
I will make this one, I figure to have around 200+ frags sps and zoos. How do people set up for something like this to control temp and keeping your corals alive and healty? Should I start making a traveling frag tank?
 
If I can get a long distance frag donation I will make it up from Mt. Juliet Tn. look likes yall gonna have a nice swap.
 
Personally, I don't think selling should be allowed...it is called a SWAP as a way for fellow hobbyist to trade corals. Selling is very contrary to what FRAG SWAPS are about.

If you have some corals you want to trade, by all means trade them, if you want to sell them, use the LFS or other means, IMHO.
 
I like that you can buy them there personally. Being new to this while scene it gives me a chance to get some frags cheaper than LFS's since I dont have any of my own to swap.

I agree whole heartedly.

Okay, but what about someone who has a tank FULL of sps and not really looking to add many more corals to the tank because of limited room. Sure I could go to a LFS and sell them for $10-$15 a frag, but then the hobbiest ends up paying $35+ Craigs corals up at Beltds are $69!!! I dont think they would be that at a swap.

Trading will be done I am sure, but if I bring just 3 frags of each of my corals, I would have over 100 frags, of which I dont need 100 new frags for my tank.

While I understand what you are saying Dave, I really think that would limit participation and quality and quantity of corals going to other reefers

Just my 2 cents
 
I hear what you are saying too, Clark...good point. Just would be nice for people to be able to take some up and get some in trade as well without it turning into a "sales-only" event. Whatever everyone does is OK with me, I won't be there and probably shouldn't have commented.
 
I don't have any thing to trade either. I'm trying to set up two new nano's. If you trade only you have just alienated anyone who is just starting tanks, and thats one thing I really like about the hobby is everyone I've ever met is always helpful and willing to help. Don't shut out the little guys.
 
i will be bring colonys of zoos to frags

i am taking down my frag tank

might bring some sps but might not have room for it

i cant trade anything because i have a stuffed 58 and cant fit anything else in after i bring everything home
