Hobos 15 WB tank

Just a cheap "fridge" that keeps things cold. Not refrigerator cold. But colder.
The reef AB that's in the tube is the only amount that doesn't stay cold. I think it says somewhere that a week in room temp is fine for it, so the liquid in the tube is used up before the week is up.

Update from my phone!!! Just a quick shot of this candy cane coral. Started as a dual head frag!

Solid haul. (In my mind)
Three hammers. A chalice. And a digi.

Miami hurricane chalice!

I'm sure I'm behind on the times, but one of the vendors supplied these cool "reflective" bags with purchases at the Reefing USA show.
Although I did have a cooler to move things, I thought this was an awesome cheap option that some of the vendors provided.
It is plastic, which is unfortunate, as well as has an adhesive strip to seal it. But I plan on keeping it for moving things or pickups etc.
Vendor who provided these was The Aquarium Cove.
Other vendors provided similar as well, but they required a minimum buy.

Photos of acquired corals to follow once they wake up.

That's a pretty good idea! I have a throwaway lunch box that I use, if I'm planning on doing a big haul I'll put some foam into it that has cutouts made for urine sample cups (these are awesome for frag transport, grab a pack off of Amazon)

On the specimen cup note! Something @Corals.com did for transporting delicate corals was snuggly fit a ring of foam on the bottom of the frag plugs.the bottom floated. Kept the tissue from being beat up.

That's a good tip too!

Apologies for the dirty tank glass, but things are starting to extend.
Three different colored hammers.
A Jason Fox Digi direct from the dude himself! (Suntan?)
Miami Hurricane Chalice.
A few zoa frags, (holding for someone else)

 

[mjszos]

That digi is rad!

I THINK i saw this on this site... but a cool way to keep portions consistent with frozen...
Found a mini ice cube tray at the dollar store, let the frozen flat defrost just enough. Repack into cube tray, and pop em out! I feed one or two 1/4" cubes a day.
This one is mermaids feast. I typically use Rods as mermaids has bigger chunks that are hard to "spread"
