Looking forward to it.!.

Are we doing a frag swap.?. 

@Emerald525 ?

Ok, late notice I know.. but the next monthly meeting will be at my place. Details below, pizza and drinks will be available!

Time: Sunday the 19th, from 12:00 - 2:00

Location: 1610 Ash St., Lake Oswego (about 12 minutes from Cuttlefish!)

We will be focusing on this being an equipment swap.. bring your unneeded equipment to sell or give away (I know I have plenty for the free box). Feel free to list what you're bringing in this thread. 

You can also look at the good and ugly side of the hobby.. after remodeling my kitchen, a lot of my sps have lost their color. BUT you can see a large collection of Tie Dye Jawbreakers 😜

Please let us know if you are coming so we can plan the right amount of food!

Ohhh I might have to try this… my MP40 is so loud!

Do you have any pictures of the ATI fixture? 

Sure! 

Hi guys I have some equipment/corals  I can bring to the holiday party today:

- Radion XR30 gen 3 - $250

- Radion XR15 gen 4 - $200

- ATI 8 bulb T5 fixture, pretty good shape. No bulbs. Middle 2 reflectors taken out to turn it into a hybrid - $175

- Bubble Magus curve 5 skimmer - $50 (add a dc conversion to turn this into a beast)

- Fresh cut CC Voodoo Majick frags - $50 small, $75 big from this colony 

- Tie Dye Jawbreakers - I have a bunch, most with red, many with green. Pm for info/pricing 

For those who haven’t gotten their ruler and pop stand yet, I’ll have them at the holiday party today!

When I started a tank with dead rock it took a long time before my acros survived… even the ones that “did well” didn’t grow and then months later died. I never found another reason, so I think it had to do with building up maturity in the tank. Your alk and nutrients are in the high side, but i don’t think it’s  enough to kill things unless they aren’t stable. 
 

been there… I know how much it sucks. Maybe run an icp test?

I always test things out with sone birdsnest before adding other sps… let me know when you’re ready and I’ll kick you a frag to test out 

I will be there 

Next pick up windows will be this Sunday:

- at Cuttlefish from 2-4 on Sunday

- my house 6-8 (Lake Oswego)

I might be able to meet later on Saturday, and I work from home on Monday so I can do anytime that day

So you don't reply to dm? I can only meet at cnc other wise take me off and send my money back 

Dude I’ve been sick with Covid for 10 days, clearly I missed seeing your payment. All you had to do was send a note saying it was sent and I’d confirm receipt. All I had was a dm with your cell number and no context. Please understand we’re having to coordinate with over 20 people and there will be hiccups along the way.

I’ve marked you as paid now. If you want to pick up at CnC next weekend we can do that. I’m sending a couple extras to @obrien.david.j if you want to arrange a pick up this weekend. If you want to back out just let me know and I’ll refund your money.

IMPORTANT UPDATE...

Frags are at @reefrun's house.   We're not going to xfer the whole batch to my house for this weekend, and then xfer back to reefrun's house for next weekend.

YOU NEED TO NOTIFY ME YOU WANT TO PICK UP FROM ME...  By End of Thursday please

(so your frag can be xfered to my house)

I've heard from @Lexinverts (picking up 2frags)   Reach out everyone.   This is the weekend to pickup.

I know @Gumby and @Bicyclebill mentioned they wanted to pick up from you.. I'll let them confirm

We are still needing payment from the below people:

@AquaKey @503reefdroid @svt_guido @reefbandit @Leonardomanzano @radom808 @OregonGrownReef @Brittany

I’ll bet the old lady who lives across from me thinks I’m a drug dealer now… after people coming to grab baggies of stuff out of a box on my porch 🤣

Just now, Emerald525 said:

I will send a message to Harley from PNWMAS custom and Tami who works with him. 
 

@islandVib3s I believe you live close to Harley at PNW custom. Are you able to pick up the POP stands as soon as I verify they are ready ?

@islandVib3s if they’re ready beforehand can you bring them with you when you pick up your frag?

Paid!

Are you Aaron? Trying to match the payments up with people  

Ok I've been trying for like an hour to get this out as an email and I give up lol We'll just do it in the thread

It's finally time! Frags are ready to go, so let's get them paid for and out to you guys!
@Parzifal @AquaKey @503reefdroid @islandVib3s @svt_guido @Kerbash @reefbandit@Leonardomanzano @Emerald525 @J-Dog @jtichenor @Yourmedic @radom808 @OregonGrownReef @Bicyclebill @obrien.david.j @Brittany @Lexinverts @badxgillen @SeymoreGulls@Gumby

• Paypal: sabrinafair@hotmail.com  (send friends & family to avoid fees)
• Venmo:  @grassee 

• This weekend: my house, 1610 Ash St, Lake Oswego. I currently have covid so this weekend will be 100% contact free pick up only. I don't have the pop stands with me, so unless someone brings them to me, you'll have to pick yours up later. Please reach out to schedule a time
• Next weekend: @obrien.david.j 's house
• 11/27 - 11/30: I can probably be available at CnC on Sunday 2-4 (and can meet at my house afterward), Mondays I work from home so I can hand it over quickly during the day or you can see the tanks and come in from 6-8, Tues-Weds I can meet 7-8

Hey all... sorry it's been a rough 24 hours! I'll send out a group text shortly with payment info and we can talk pick up windows for those who want to brave the germs this weekend. Again, contact free only... you'll be getting a baggie on my porch lol 

Well friends, I just tested positive for Covid this morning so we might need to modify the plan a bit. I'll need to quarantine until Monday. 

I'm willing to host contact-free pick up at my front door over the weekend for those who feel comfortable.

I'm waiting for feedback from the board about extending the pick up window

Hey @reefrun, is there a quick tank tour included in picking up the frag? Does that cost extra? I've seen some pretty cool looking pics you've posted for the Blood Bank growout on R2R and I'm curious to see what's under the hood. 

Of course!

Still another 5 spots for the original 20 planned, though I can easily make another 10 frags if we have enough people sign up!
