I cant wait. Hope to have tank, and have it ready by then. I see we changed locations. IS it bigger?

It's comparable if not a little larger.

As the new guy, what is a typical price range for frags? Just want to budget between now and then.
I typically buy small and let them grow. I know that's a broad question because of species, etc. AC usually charges $20 for their smallest frags. Will there be any there below that, or is that a good starting point?

You can buy frags all day there for $20 each. You can also spend a few hundred on a single piece as well.

My first swap in Nashville was a bit overwhelming. Get some rest the night before and bring a pocket full of cash!!!
