Chattanooga Frag Swap!!

[salt newbie01]

If your interested Gary I will have some water from Carib-sea. They will be our official seawater provider. That is what Dr mac, PFO and Casey will be using - so if you need some extra let me know and I can hook you up.

Glad to hear about the clams - I hope it works out

Gary I would be in for a clam or two! Did I miss where you were talking about them and how much?

I started a thread a week or so back (probably two weeks now-been drugged for about a week with the stones). I've been wanting a few for myself, so I decided to go ahead and pull the trigger. I won;t have anythign until next week sometime, so I'll get some pics up as soon as I do. I'm hoping that with losses, etc., I'll be able to hold them to the $60 range, but some may go slightly higher. I asked for only 3+" sizes. I'm trying for a few squamosa, maxima's (including teardrops, but they said they don't think I'd get any black teardrops), and a few croceas.

I wondered if Casey had made up his mind or not. I knew he wouldn't pass it up.

Last time I talked with him Gary he was trying to work it out. Let me know if want any of this water we will have from carib-sea.

Sounds like a good deal on the clams, look forward to checking them out.

As far as I know, its a go, so unless somethign shoots me down, I should have some pics next week. I'm excited.

just curios, what is the best way to transport the frags home. I live about an hour away. And would it be possible to go out to eat afterward. I can take them into the restaurant with us if needed, i'm not scared although my bf thinks i'm crazy.

 

[bamachamp92]

take a small playmate cooler or a styrofoam box they will be fine just keep them out of direct sunlight

 

[ironman]

Going out to eat? Dont do that! We are cooking hambergurs, hotdogs, nacho chips, and some great chicken wings. save that money. our food will be cheaper so you can spend more on frags! LOL!

Erica:

You're not crazy. They'll be fine but don't leave them in a hot car, even in a cooler, for too long. Take them in with you in a small cooler as mentioned.
