January 2009 Frag Swap Thread

[Gina McReeferson]

The next frag swap will be at the end of the January 2009 meeting...

Here is the info on the January meeting, http://bostonreefers.org/forums/showthread.php?p=683253.

Please list what you're looking for and/or what you've got to trade/sell.

Posting frags for sale here is okay, as long as you're just a hobbyist, and the frags will be at the meeting.

For new folks: a "frag" is a piece of coral. In this hobby we like to cut off pieces of coral and trade or sell them to others. We have a frag swap at the end of our monthly meetings.

To keep this thread as uncluttered as possible, if your post is not specifically about arranging a coral trade (or selling/buying), then start a new thread with the question or point. For example, if you want to know the best way to pack frags, please start a new thread.

Hopefully this frag swap thread will remain useful.

Note that if somebody starts a new thread about their frags available at the meeting (not within this thread), it will get moved to the appropriate Marketplace forum. Feel free to mention within this thread if you have a separate thread in the Coral forum.


So, what have you got? What are you looking for?

[fishindude]

I have a 25+ polyp frag of green clove polyps. $20 to buy or will take zoanthid trades.

 

[networkfishman]

Looking for blue or purple sps (acros, torts, digi, etc). Hopefully really dark/bright colors under MH. Frags can be small for trade or in the $5-10 range but might go up to $20 if really good. Sorry, low on funds these days.

Some frags to trade are in all different sizes and can provide more info (lineage) and/or pics (though won't be great):
- Blue Millis (looks more like pink with blueish tips - might be my lighting)
- birdnest (tight branching; pink with purple polyps)
- german blue digi (yellowish with blue polyps)
- candlelight acro (yellowish with green tips)

PM if interested in trades, I'm not interested in selling just yet. Will end up posting in "For Sale" threads when I am ready along with other frags.

Thanks!

4) bicolor pseudochromis - $15 ($10 for paid members) - About 2.5" had him over 1.5 years now.
7) Duncans! - $10 & $25($20 for paid members) - the $10 is small and has 2 heads (has initial growings of 2 babies). Used to be 4 but it got stung. The $25 is like 3-4 heads + 1-2 babies.
