tif Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Hi there, I moved to Warrenton, OR from Lansing, MI in May this year with my 29 gallon Biocube. The 90+ degree temps overheated my tank which was temporarily in a cooler. All that survived were my soft corals. Are there any folks near Astoria or Warrenton with Pocillopora frags for sale? In Michigan when I got back into the hobby, many seasoned hobbyists often gave frags to new members to get them started. Does that happen here? My husband and I visit Portland often. So whether in Portland or closer to us in Warrenton, I'd love to network and meet new people. =) Also, which LFSs in Portland do you prefer? Cheers, Tiffanie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald525 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Welcome to the club Tiffanie! I've been to Lansing, MI. I had a roommate that moved there and she would tell me about 20 below weather. Yes lots of people give away frags to newbies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emerald525 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 As far as fish stores Westside is worth checking out. He has a new 1000 gallon reef tank. I also go to Ocean in a box, Ed's reef, The coral mafia when its open and Rose city. There are an incredible amount of fish stores. The premium aquarium in Salem is also worth a visit. Great deal on cleanup crews. If you are ever in the Portland area I always have freebie frags for newbies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
