we FINALLY did a great trade together, i think it was about 2 months in the making after all was said and done.

the stuff we traded would have made most people light headed. i'll have to be honest, the night that FedEx and UPS was in possesion of our goods i was a little on edge. lol

I sent to Reefboy:

-3 polyps of ruby red/red wine zoas
-RPE's
-some orange skir zoas with green in the center
-3 polyps of the fraggle reef purple haze micro (although, when i checked it before i sent, i saw like 5 baby polyps too)
-ORA blue polyp acro w/ green base (apparently this RTN'd on him :( )
-acro saramentosa, its green w/ pink tips (this died the next day also)
-blue polyp danae w/ yellow base
-acro geminifera, wild green polyps with a purple base

Reefboy sent me:

-3 polyps of the fragglereef UFO micro
-a huge frag of THE oregon tort...amazingly blue!!
-tiny frag of THE watermelon chalice :)
-3 polyps of PPE's
-a HUGE chunk of the atlantis crayola table acro. although, due to its size it had a rough time shipping, and started to RTN from the base up. so i had to cut it up to a bunch of frags to try and save it. so far, frags all look good and RTN seems to have stopped.

i think thats everything. we waited on doing it due to some crazy weather, esspecially out here in the east. warmed up to 50's early this week so we decided to jump on the opportunity.

well, what it really means is you need to ship smaller frags, not small colonies. LOL! :hammer:

here are the frags :)

you can see the two crayola frags. they are obviously pretty stressed and will need some time to color back up.
