If is anybody is going to be at Aquashella Chicago, would you care to trade some frags?

Chicago does not have an active Reef Club to my knowledge, so all I can do is sell at my LFS. Care to save a few bucks and trade instead of buying?

I know for sure I'll have at least one, maybe two, Rainbow Incinerator Zoa frags, a Blue Raven Blasto, two Fireworks Clove Polyps, and possibly a Lightning Star Polyp (like GSP, but all-green and slower growing). I may have more, have to check.

...Let me know?

I'll be there on Saturday afternoon, but the tank's still young so not much established yet. I've got a couple of green devil's hand buds off my big colony, and I could maybe part with a torch head. I'm in Libertyville; where are you based?

Nowhere near Libertyville, unfortunately. :grinning-squinting-face:

I'm in Orland Park.

It's okay, hold on to your colonies. They're better off healing for a week or two before being transferred to a new tank. But thanks for the offer to trade. :)

Since you're down there, what do you think of Reefwise and Blue Line? Haven't hiked down there yet but I've heard good things.

OFFER CHANGE:

Be the first person to find the weirdo wearing this necklace and win a free frag! Shout "AtlantiCat" at me to get my attention. Or start singing "I'll Tumble 4 Ya" if you're daring. :face-with-tongue:

Blue Line is in Naperville, which isn't exactly local. I went once, but although the selection is good and the owner is knowledgeable, the store is a dumpy hole-in-the-wall.

Haven't been to Reefwise.

Aquatica is my local and they're under new ownership and working to improve the store.

LOL makeup and all? Is your hair done?
Fact: I was once nicknamed "Boy George" by folk at my college. I used to wear a black fedora with a red leather band tied around it that hung off the back with feathers dangling from it, over long wavy hair. I'm androgynous enough to have pulled it off, too.

Never wore the pancake makeup, though. :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:

No takers on the free frag!

I'm still here, at least through the Frag-Off at 2pm. Find the necklace, some of the links glow under actinic. :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:
