Is there a certain thing at the frag show your looking for

mistya55 · 09/14/2010, 06:16 AM

I am going hoping to find a good used 48" light, live rock, a dendro, red deep water zoas, and any interesting gorgonians. I hope there is a good turn out. So what is everyone else looking for? I wish I could find a pretty scolymia that doest cost an arm and a leg.

Scolys are one of my favorites, but my wallet isn't thick enough to get one. I'm sure there will be a very nice one there. I will do more looking than buying. I don't really have much room in my tank, but there may be something that catches my eye and I can't live without it. Nothing in particular, just staying below my wife's spending radar.

Those scoly prices kill me. I guess that will have to be a christmas or birthday item for me. Thats funny about the spending radar, thats one thing thats bad here, Johnnie goes everywhere with me so he knows what most items cost. He mentioned seeing the salt in my van when I said I was broke for the week. But hey, I really needed it. And on Mondays when my niece comes over she will point out anything new, so if he hasnt noticed he will on Monday. She loves the tank and has to know everything about the new item. She used to call the corals plants.

Yeah, my kids are happy to report coral buying activity to my wife. They have gotten me into a little trouble before. I can't get a scoly now anyway due to my small nano. When I move to a larger tank it will be near the top of my list, though.

I have a 48 inch coralife power compact light. I dont know what your looking for, but it would be on the cheap for sure.

I am on the look out for a mag 12 or mag 18,or any in sump return pump that is more than 1200 gph.

techdiver · 09/14/2010, 02:24 PM

I have a mag 12 I bought from Dave but never used.

farrowkc · 09/14/2010, 04:02 PM

Would the mag 12 be big enough for my new tank or do I need a bigger one?

I might be able to help you with that after the swap. I am picking up a stocked tank to replace the one I have now and may end up with some excess.

farrowkc · 09/14/2010, 05:29 PM

I'm interested in any excess live rock. I bought a new tank and am needing rock for it.

We haven't seen your new tank. What size is it?

farrowkc · 09/14/2010, 07:19 PM

It is 210 gallons, David and I are supposed to pick it up Sat.

mistya55 · 09/14/2010, 07:57 PM

How many watts is the power compacts you have? I haven't totally made up my mind what I want in the 55 yet. I have been leaning toward only having low light corals in it. Would you send me a pm and let me know what your asking for it?

I would definetly be interested in the live rock. That hurts my budget more than anything else I believe.

Looks like we might find some good deals with each other before we even get to the swap.
