Don't you know that's how the AF works?  Jebuz!

Just curious, do club members have name tags or anything to identify at the swap they are Ohio Reef members. I would like to meet some of you to put a face to the name.

I almost always wear a nametag with my screen name and my witness protection name.    

CincyReef's swap is all about their club, so I would assume its frowned apon.  I might try it anyway.

CORA's swap is just the opposite.  They let us have a Ohio Reef sign and post our location on the "where are you" board and promote our club any way we want to at the frag swap.

[quicksilver]

Wow nice zoos .

[MechanicalEngineer]

Usually anyone selling will have a sign at their table.  They also usually give out nametags.

[gthorpe2]

Well I'm part of this club and cincyreef, I'm not sure if cincyreef will care if poeple wear nametags, but I'm not the president, I'm just a little (tall 6'6) member.  It would be nice to know who everybody is.

[lazylivin]

I will be the fat guy wearing a black bandanna. 

[larrynews]

[quicksilver]

Just curious what you all thought of the frag swap today. I did not have any expectations so it was pretty good. Seemed like decent prices. especially Marine Solutions. So did you all spend to much money? did your trades show up?

I bought quite a few SPS from the guy in the back corner. He seemed to have some really nice stuff. He had Garf Bonsai's which I have been trying to get for the past year. It is nice.

My only worry is I was so excited to put the SPS in the tank I forgot to use Interceptor on the corals to kill any parasites or red bugs. I am a bit worried but the frags do look fine. Should I be worried?

[verper]

You should not have any problems with the stuff from the guy in the back if it was YZReef or something like that.  "Redbug eye" Nikki did not see any at the vendors.  Personal trades are a different story.  I always ask, but still quarantine for at least a few weeks on most personal trades/buys.  Some reefers don't know that they have pests or don't care.

[MechanicalEngineer]

Yeup...I wasn't looking too hard for red bugs since I didn't buy any acroporas, but usually they jump out at me.  I didn't see anything. 

I've purchased from YZ Reef before with no problems.  I purchased the Bonsai from him back in spring...and it's doing great.

The swap was rather sparse...and ran a bit long IMO.  It's going to be interesting to go to the Columbus swap...completely different.  All in all, I'm happy.  I got the Sanddollar Montipora that I've been eyeballing for forever.

That swap was better than some years I've gone.

I did good.  All but one trade showed up.  Made a little money and spent it on the way home.  

I also won a raffle prize (no, not one of the grand prizes for all of you that gave me your tickets).  I won 4 -30ml jars of DT's Oyster Eggs.  Not sure what I'll do with that many, but I won!  

And Nikki only got that coral because I didn't buy both frags of it.   

[lazylivin]

Thanks Guys, it was YZreef so I wont sweat it but will keep an eye on them. Nikki, did you get a "Pink" Monti Sand dollar? If so you are lucky you saw it before me 

[lazylivin]

Congrats Verper, did any of our Ohio Reef members win the grandprizes?

[verper]

Nope, not that lucky.

[MSUJenn]

It must have been my lucky raffle ticket that you won with Scott, just kidding.

I scored a pink cadillac and a superman monti, so I'm happy. Looking forward to finding some different stuff at the swap in a couple of weeks though.
