Things that bothered me at RAP!!!

#3
Lot's of hot girls there, which was surprising. Why is this bad? I think most of them were there with their boyfriends or husbands. What I want? A girl who loves corals and reef aquariums! What I get? Jack.

yea what is up with that. I mean my wife is pretty easy on the eyes but I got into reefing after we were married.. I mean seriously us reef nerds are like 1 step up from star-trekkies OMG

Dude, I'm a reef nerd AND a computer scientist. Ugh.
 
Oh man, I thought I was dreaming those girls were so hot! I was like "wait... I am at a reefapalooza looking at amazing corals and equipment with my bud Justin and there are hot girls everywhere.... am I dead? That's strange because I could have sworn I wasn't going to heaven... oh wait no cupid's hot dogs Nooooooooo!!!!!"

I wouldn't say they scammed you. Xenia is a very common and rapidly reproducing coral.

Lol $1 for a head of xenia is not much, considering he posted this on another forum.

"We are looking for pompom pulsing xenia. We are offering $5 cash for a full size stock or $7.5 in credit. Please bring them mounted…………."

Even if I brought 50+ heads mounted on ONE rock, $1 a head is low balling and you are wrong if you think that is anywhere near fair, especially when they would probably resell a rock like that for $300. You have to realize that he was only giving me $40 IN CREDIT TO BUY AT HIS FISH STORE; so in actuality, I'm getting what? $20 in actual cash from his pocket? Probably less actually.

Wow... I suggest not getting into Star Wars.
 
I could use cash more than the Euro-Reef RS80 I won. Interested? I'll sell it under the internet prices.
 
how much are the LE watermelon chalices going for these days?
mine is about the size of a quarter if not a little bigger and i'm thinking of selling it. ;) if the price is right
 
Totally agree with #3 that was whack! He won like 1/4 of the friggin prizes in the first raffle and when the second raffle came around i was trying to be all late with putting my tickets in and the guy goes and shakes it like a mad man...grrr!!! This was my first RAP and i was expect hella geeks here but man oh man. There were some EYE Candy and i don't mean Allen's store. hehe
 
Lol viet, you get $40 credit but it would probably cost you 5 times that or more just to buy it back.

LE watermelon was going for $250 for a small frag. Slow grower huh? The person selling it said that this was OG watermelon from the person who sold it to Tyree.

Yeah, that would be a mistake. Though I do get my fill of eye candy at UCLA, which allowed me to focus on corals! : )
