What did you score at the swap?

[BirmanReefGirl]

Thomas and I came home with 2 polyps of Seductions, a full colony of Rastas, an Orange Maul, a VDM (Valentine's Day Massacre), Thundercats, and Raptors Rainbows. Then we ventured into SPS with a Bird of Paradise, Strawberry Shortcake acro, E-Corals Unknown acro from Anthony, and a Tyree Bali tricolor. Neil is trying to get us hooked on SPS and was giving me all kinds of tips on their care

Also scored Julian's Thing and two gift cards (from Reefs2Go and California Reef Co) in the raffle :bounce2:

Let's see your loot!

Green Sour Patch Kids Arco (Your Reef)

I was wondering who got the other green sourpatch kids!
John was nice enough to let me name it yesterday morning when we were labeling all the frags. And I may have misspelled acro as arco when writing out all the labels....:lmao:

You spelled it ok on the top

I was googling the coral and didn't find anything about it online. would make sense that you just named it and there isn't anything on the internet about it. lol

Chris and I spent 15 minutes trying to come up with a good name. There were only 2 frags that went to the swap, and you got one and I have the other.

I honestly don't know. The only corals I remember picking up are a pink boobies and a green sourpatch kids acro.

Chris got a bunch of corals from powderhound that my hawkfish immediately decided to sit on. I didn't even get home and get to dipping corals until 10:30 last night. Chris left straight from the hall to go back to work after we got it all cleaned up.

Yesterday was all a blur for me, I am sure it was for Anthony and Chris as well. We hope that everyone had a lot of fun and we are already planning for the December meeting and for some of the events next year! :bounce1:

Thank you to Karl, Heather, Christy, and Thomas for their amazing help! Anthony, Chris and I were desperately trying to run the swapping while still participating and they graciously helped us out. We know it was a little bit hectic yesterday and we had a couple technical glitches, but we promise to have all the kinks worked out next time.

Also big thanks to everyone who stayed and helped clean up after the swap! If I have accidentally left anyone one out of my thanks, I am deeply sorry. Yesterday was immensely exhausting, and a lot of it just blurred together for me.

Drew, was that you who brought the green millepora? What's your secret for such great polyp extension? They've shrunk a tad in my tank but those are awesome looking.

Are you asking specifically about a MARS swap or any swap in general?
