frags to trade in the des moines area

Hey, if you don't find anyone to trade there are many in the area that will have frags of about anything you want . Especially for a new member we will have some good deals.  Just post in here what you may be looking for and I a sure you can find what you want.

 

I personally have several Acros and a few zoos. Here is a quick short list, most about $10:
Tri-Color Valida (Acro)
Green Slimer (Acro)
Pink Birdsnest
Hydronophora (VERY Aggressive but so are plates)
Watermelon Chalice ($$)
Rainbow Monti
Toadstool
Zelda Zoos
That's all that comes to mind right now.

 

Adams Aquatics policy on frag trading is a little funny but it is because of the insurance company that he uses. Also because of past bad experences. I dont know why they dont get involved w/GIRS?

 

He and Scott view us as a threat. They can't touch our prices on corals or used equipment, so they shun us. Problem is, like any business, we are reality and are not going away. Just like walmart isn't going away and internet shopping isn't going away although their competition wish they would. The local shops would be much better off to embrace us like stores in other areas of the state. Then we would be more than glad to promote them here like the others.

 

Hey jtesdall, I'm in ames and would like a few things you have. I'd even more so like to have a look at your aquarium. Maybe we can arrange something sometime.

 

Sure, I am about 30 minutes from you just north of E18. Let me know a time that works for you.

 

Its too bad they think that way.  The fact that we have a reef club is one of the reasons I set up my reef.  One of my favorite things about reefing is growing out corals and trading frags.  If it wasn't for that, I wouldn't have a tank.  Just about everybody that has a tank is going to spend some money at the LFS.

 

You are exactly right Garrett. I have had some business discussions with Scott, I am going to see if I can convince him.
