Next frag swap in Victoria?
 
Does anyone In Victoria wanna have a frag swap? I can host at my place or if anyone else wants to volunteer they can!

Aquattro 04-07-2013 01:07 PM

Might be able to hold it here if there's more room. When were you thinking?

Let's see how much interest there is and we can plan from there. Need at least 10 people to make it worth Christy baking those chickpea brownies :)

Haha the less people who show the more for you! I may have a few things to bring depending on the day. The end of the month is typically a gong show for me.

I knew the brownies would bring you out!! lol Sorry, none for me, I'm can't eat those right now. You can have mine, for a frag :)

What dates work for you? You're integral to a good swap, so we can't leave you out!

Hey Shelly, yes i'd love a couple tomatoe plants. What kind of tomatoes?
And i will have those two zoo med magnetic probe holders you gave me, back to you in a day or two, they are on their way over from van tonight with Wayne(J&L shopping). Thanks so much again for fronting those to me.


And i am totally in for a frag swap...... i soooooooooo need to empty my frag racks, sps and zoa frags. That's what im bringing. Im sure it will be on a sat or sun, so can it be a bit later on in the day....like afternoon sometime, as i work both those days till 4:30, i should be able to get off work a touch early to make it before people leave and the brownies are gone!!!
Can i request some rice kripie eggs too Christy/Brad???:wink:

Borderjumper 04-07-2013 08:35 PM

[quote=Duker;809417]Hey Shelly, yes i'd love a couple tomatoe plants. What kind of tomatoes?
Some are Red Robin.. Those are actually setting tomatos.. Google em!
then I have some that I saved the seeds from an especially good plant.. I don't remember what those are, then some Yellow tumblers and minions.

Text me if you want to pick some up.

windcoast reefs 04-07-2013 10:32 PM

I would love to take some but I'm outa room! I've got some trimming to do so hopefully we can get this going!

lngrhaul 04-08-2013 03:14 AM

I would come as a buyer - got nothing to swap other than frogspawn or torch.

Buyers are always welcome!

christyf5 04-08-2013 03:17 PM

I will also be a prospective eater of brownies, I mean buyer. My tank is looking less like arse lately and has a few spaces to fill.

Ronnie, was I supposed to be bringing you a replacement somethingorother?:razz:

Aquattro 04-08-2013 03:19 PM

Discussed with the boss, and May 4/5 works out well.

YIPPIE! :surprise:

krazykarl 04-08-2013 06:16 PM

Never been to a frag swap but would like to come see how its done and maybe come home with a frag or two! I also have some frags I could bring just need some info like: Do we just bring them in containers? What do we do with them once we get there? I know these may be silly questions but like I said never been to a swap.

Karl

Aquattro 04-08-2013 06:18 PM

Karl, bags or containers are fine. Once there, we usually have a tank or tub of heater water to float things in to keep stable. Unless you're Dan, who brings his won tanks and water :)

freezetyle 04-08-2013 07:35 PM

i'd be down for this one. although it would have to be after 6 on the sat. im free all day the sunday

Bblinks 04-08-2013 07:44 PM

Certain frag Rich was looking at last time he was over :)

Rice Reef 04-08-2013 07:49 PM

RPS
 
Oh yeah, I have a few extra bottles of RPS all out left. If you need it let me know. $28 per bottle.

lngrhaul 04-08-2013 07:57 PM

Sunday is best for me as well.

If anyone wants to walk on the ferry - I live out that way and could arrange to pick up and drop off.

marie 04-08-2013 09:34 PM

Awww, I wanna come too......I wonder if my daughter wants a trip to Victoria for her birthday :lol:


Could it be a sunday? If it's a sunday I may be able to arrange something.

Actually they have reached the age where they prefer to keep an eye on me in case I do something stupid...... :lol:

krazykarl 04-09-2013 03:40 AM

Ok Count me in will watch for time and date:) Almost have stand complete for the new tank so I need to stock up!

daplatapus 04-09-2013 03:53 AM

Has a time been set yet? I might be able to whip down. I'd also be willing to car pool if anyone wants to share the ride from Nanaimo or something. I have a F350 superduty that seats 5 comfortably.

Aquattro 04-09-2013 04:04 AM

I think we're planning May 5th. Sunday works better for most people so far..

Will it be an all day, drop by anytime, kinda thing or just a couple hours in the afternoon?
And your place, right?

Aquattro 04-09-2013 02:23 PM

Probably 1 - 5 kinda thing, yes, my place.

Afraid I'm going to miss this one... I will be on the bottom of the ocean on the outside of the Haida Gwaii surveying abalone populations. Too bad, I have some really nice pieces ready to frag. I will try to get some pics up and might send some frags down with Daplatapus if people are interested. Looks like it's going to be a bad one to miss :(.
