Looking to Buy Softies, LPS, easy SPS

looking for easier coral for my first reef tank including softies (zoas, mushrooms, palys, Xenia, Alveo) and easier LPS/SPS (acans, birdsnest, etc). Ames area is best but am willing to travel to the Des Moines area as well! Thanks

 

Welcome to the site and congratulations on your first tank!

There's a lot of good help here that can get you some starter frags. Also in a few months we are having a giant swap down here in Des Moines...more info on that coming soon

 

I have some Kenya tree frags in des Moines though.

 

I have never really looked into them but I've heard that they are easy to keep! How much are you looking for a frag?

 

$5/Frag

 

I have green birds nest and orange setosa frags super easy sps. 10$ each. Here are pics of mother colonies.

 

ISUFishtank, if I were you when your tank is ready I'd hit Fred up for a head of that nice green frogspawn.

 

It was already said, but if you can wait until ~March there will be the GIRS Spring fest frag show in Des Moines. In addition to all the Coral vendors and GIRS Member tables there's also a community table where any GIRS member can bring bagged frags for sale to anyone. Frags at community table are well priced = cheap cheap.

I'm working on making frags to bring to Spring Fest right now.
I plan on bringing:
Xenia (a few different strains)
Blue Sympodium
Green star polyps
Purple star polyps
Nepthea
Capnella
Several different leather corals

 

Looks like I will definitely have to come to that! It'll also be fun to meet everyone and get some advice
