    I am looking for some Corals/Inverts locally (Des Monies)...  I am going to place an order with reeftopia but thought I would put some feelers here first. 
    Here is what I am looking for....  Snails, Emerald Crabs, in general a good clean crew and some other corals and what not (Pulsing Xenia, I know many say its a weed)...  really I am open to suggestions I have Orbit Extreme PC 2X130, 90 gallon wave front so suggestions and thoughts are welcome.  I am looking to expand my small collection.  Suggestions help!?!?? 
    I have a long tentacle anemone, pink/purple tip anemone, some mushrooms, toadstool, green button polyps, and a couple other small things.  All are doing very well again still a learning stage!

    I wouldn't buy xenia online, there far to over priced and they aren't very good when it comes to shipping. If you cant find them in the DM area I have tons of them you can have.

    Yeah... I have heard that.
    I hope to find somethings in the DSM area, I have yet to be convinced of the pricing of items at the local LFS's and sometimes the quality isn't there even if I have to start with frags I am willing.  Just trying to get my tank a little more lively, kind of testing the waters a little. Not sure the direction I want to go with everything. I do know if things keep going the way they are I would like to step up to a 120 and build a custom stand and canopy and go for more of a reef setup better lighting and so on.

    I did see that, do you have any photos of it?  I did a little searching on it but wasn't sure how well it would do in my tank with the lighting in all.  But I guess if its cheap and doesn't work out no big deal.

    FWIW,, I have some Purple Rimmed Green Monti Cap high up in my tank and it seems to be doing very well under my lighting, nice color and growing well. I bought it at the frag swap to give it a try and in the last couple weeks its really taken off!

    I've got some GSP for sale, and some extra xenia. I live about a mile away from Adam's Aquatics.
    fishkilla67@netscape.net if you're interested.
    Here's my tank, copy and paste the link for some pics of the xenia, GSP. Everything is for sale at the right price.
