Don't think I will be selling anything but can't wait to see what others have, not sure if I will bring the wallet.... /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Joel... do you know what you are bringing yet? Watermellon Challice or War Coral?

 

should have at least one of each, unless someone buys them first .... hint hint./DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/rolleyes.gif

I really want the challice but I am kind of watching the pennies right now and the g/f likes the war coral so... 
been thinking might do away with the toadstools I have really don''t fit in to my 'plan' so who knows.

 

I will frag my pink watermelon if there is enough interest. It's a nice little mini colony with about 12 eyes on it but I don't want to cut into for only 1 eye.

 

slovan how much and got a pic on the chalice

 

anyone bringing superman monti?

 

I am sure someone will, I don't have any. I am almost certain Sone has plenty!

 

Huh... guess I will have to bring the wallet. I know of a couple things I want now.

 

Is this open to the public? Can anyone go? I want to plan on going and want to bring some people with me which is why I'm asking.

Thanks!

 

Yes it is open to the public but you must be a member to sell. It is a great opportunity to buy some great coral at a very reasonable price! Plus it is only $20 to become a member and then you can sell along with all of the other great benefits or membership!

 

We have GIRS rates at the Wildwood in West Des Moines and the Holiday Inn at Jordan Creek for the Coral Swap. Just mentioned the Greater Iowa Reef Society and get $87 at the Wildwood and $89 at the Holiday Inn Jordan Creek. My company does business exclusively with these hotels, both are very nice and have great customer service. AND both have indoor pools.

 

I have a friend that is looking for something like this.

It is a Magnificent Anemone, Red base with blueish/purple tenticals. I don't know if anyone will be bring this to the swap, or anyone know where I can get one. I would really like to see it before I get it. He is looking for a particular color and they very.

 

The zoo just emailed me the pass cards for the swap. Everyone please remember that if you come to the swap you can get admission to the zoo for only $4 per person!

 

Is there a list of vendors that will be there?

 

How do we get the cards Joel?

 

The is printing them up and will give them to us tomorrow morning to hand out. You have to some to the swap to get them.

 

Do you have to be present for the raffle?
