Some really cool sps and zoanthids just got posted on fragswapper within the last couple days.  The selection of frags this year is outstanding!  I've spent waaaayyyy too much money already myself, and haven't even accounted for the gems that will be available the day of the swap. 

There are still a few early bird tables available for those wanting electricity, and to be able to get themselves setup and running before the crowd begins to come in.  Hurry though, because I would bet we are sold out before the day of the swap rolls around.
PEACE.....from Zeppelin

Update:

No vendor spots are left.  We have gotten some cool raffle items for the progressive raffle.  Remember, when checking the raffle table, be sure to look at what time the raffle item will be drawn.  We will have hotdogs, sloppy joes, chili dogs, and chicken sandwiches available along with sodas.  We have gotten use of the shelter building behind the main swap area also for those of you who want to peacefully eat out of the kaos or may just want to say HI and catch up without having to shout over the crowd.  If you use this area to eat, please clean up after yourselves.

There are not many presale spots left. 

***Remember, vendors and early bird swappers, 250 watts of light per 4' space is the max.  If you are observed running more light, you will be unplugged.  We do not want to deal with breakers blowing because someone thinks they need a 400 watt bulb over a coral at a frag swap.  That much light is unnecessary. The club will be providing you 1 outlet, you must provide the extension cord and power strip.  Please use only 1 outlet.  Be considerate of your fellow vendors/early bird swappers.  When arriving, ask a member where you will be setting up.  We will have assigned spaces for all vendors and early bird swappers.  Tables will also be marked with your names.  Again, please be courteous and considerate of your fellow sellers when setting up.  Please bring towels as YOU are responsible for cleaning up any water you spill.  Your area should be left in the same condition as it was when you setup.

Thanks to EVERYONE, vendors, early bird swappers, fragswapper swappers, and all of you that are taking the time out of your day to help make this another successful All Ohio Frag Swap.  CORA appreciates it.
PEACE.....from Zeppelin

You better get on the ball! No there is plenty of really nice stuff left. Check out Pontiac2002GTP's Turaki....WOW! Very unique look to it.

Here is a pic of a mature colony.

I know there is alot left.......things that I would "make" room for are quite pricy.   I'm gonna reserve stuff soon.

Who is going, and what times do you plan on......I'm up for a carpool if we can line up our times.

So who all is going?  I'm still undecided
75G Mixed Reef w/ 30G sump/refuge

Electrical Engineers do it on impulse, with faster rise times, with more power, and less resistance at higher frequencies, without shorts, until it Hertz

I'm going......never been to the CORA swap, lots of good eyecandy.   I really don't have the space, but there are a few things that I couldn't pass up,  plus I need a few things that Dirk will probably have.

 I would make a recomendation for next years swap.  The name tag table should be at the same table where you pay to get in.  there were many people that bypassed the table and didnt get name tags.  it made it very hard to find buyers and sellers that were listed on fragswapper with prearranged sales.  Overall it was another great swap.
thanks
Jeff
