Monti hispida from fishdoc (once again, not showing correct color)

Not sure on this guy, but also from Dr. Mac. Has a light blue hue to the upper section and shows polyps, so we’ll see when it picks up some color.

Yellow/Green with purple polyps from Dr. Mac

ROAB’s Pink and blue aculeus

Red and blue mouthed goni from Dr. Mac\

Raptor’s Rainbows

Pink speckled PE’s

More rainbow’s-waiting for these puckered little guys to open.

We had a great time. There was less turnout than the last two years, but still a steady flow of people. I like getting to see everyone and meeting new people almost as much as picking up more coral.

That looks like a great meet!! Awesome to see all the vendor support, too.

WOW! Looks like an awesome swap!

It also looks like you picked up some great corals, Gary!

Looks like they put together a nice show... and as usual you came away with quite the haul.

If I can cover expenses and corals, I'm doing good. That doesn't happen very much these day, though. I'm happy with everything I got, though, so it's all good.

I really need to make it to a big swap

Nashville is the next big one (January). There is one in Memphis in September. I'll be headed, but don't expect it to be bigger than the ETRC swap. I may be pleasantly surprised (though I did well at the ETRC swap, so smaller isn't bad). If I can have one or two a year not be negative, the controller of monies doesn't get as uptight.
