    Also I will be setting up a donation for Des Moines Central Campus Marine Boilogy! 10% of my proceeds will benifit as well as any used or un-used equiptment collected. This is for a great cause. Recently they lost 2 of there 800+ gallon tanks! The program is way under funded and any help will be great. Checks payable to Karen Stiles DSMCentral Campus Marine Biology. Thanks again Dave!!!

    Are you asking about something specific? I would say frags will range from $5 to $100. I will have some for $5 and something tells me Sone will have something for $100. /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/biggrin.gif

    I may be lambing so I don't know if I can make it or not.I'm trying to make a list to give my wife but doubt if I can convince her to take the two hour drive.
    I wished I lived closer I'd love to join girs.

    Then you should join. The events are only one part of the club. You will get your $20 back in the advice you will receive. Where in north central Iowa are you if you are 2 hours away? Mason City? That does make a hike to come to events or get in on group buys.

    I am not bringing anything that cost $100 per frag!  Although if you feel generous and want to pay $100, that is fine with me. [​IMG]

    Well if you did have something for $100 it would be amazing and well worth it. Sone has some of the best corals around these parts or any parts for that matter. I think he and JJ have a bit of a competition going on. JJ won't be there so Sone, you win this one!
    So everyone, buy my frags so I can buy some of Sone's! /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/cool.gif

    I think my husband and I will be making it down this weekend, just trying to decide if there is enough interest in our stuff to make the trip.

    Here are some of the high end corals avail:
    Tyree Purple Monster- $95
    Tyree Undata- $50
    Tyree Miami Hurricane Chalice- $95
    Tyree Ponape Birdsnest- $35 per large frag
    Tyree Ponape Torch- $45
    Tyree Soli- $50
    RSC yummy mummy chalice- $60
    Fragfarmer Monitpora Setosa- $100


    I also have a ton of acro frags for 10-15 including milleporas, tenuis, miami orchid (ora), austeras, tortusas, nobilis, staghorns, deepwaters, turakis, etc etc. Plus we have some really nice zoa and paly frags (some insane pink palys!)

    LMK if you are interested in anything. If we do come down (99% sure) I will not be bringing a whole lot that has not been "ordered" in advance. Shoot me a pm if there is something on the list you want. Most of the rare corals only have 1 frag available

    If you would like to look up my feedback I have the same username on RC, or you can find info on reef2reef as well.

    Im looking for really nice looking but not necessarily "rare" LPS and a few zoanthid. Not much room for coral so I'm looking for blues, pinks, reds etc.
