for what could be a mistake - the start of this thread is all but the right way to address it. have some class guys.

best to let time go by, find out who it is and openly share who it was to give other reefers a heads up. To me, that goes a lot farther than this.

best to have other people decide if they want to deal with that person at that time, or else a legitimate thief who knows what they will be jeopardizing will return it, and go along with the story of "oops a mistake was made" and benefit no one.

That is such a bummer.

This was my first frag swap and I truely enjoyed myself! I hope they find the corals or the thief and that this experience doesn't stop an cool event from happening again.

This is the first time I also finally decided to dive into sps coral ( thanks for the awesome corals Ryan!)

I'm sorry to hear this happened. I did notice, though, that the floating bags were spinning around the tank floating to the front and Thomas's colleague was attempting to keep them at the back. Maybe have them clipped to a beam at the back or the back of the tank somehow.

You can put the start of the thread on me.. I have no patience for stuff like this... like I said, you would have gone home and realized you have 2 BEAUTIFUL GORGEOUS extra pieces..
later that night, I went to the monster trucks with kids and wife.. then I had someone go into.my truck, make a mess and then stole the $4.00 in change and my kids iphone. They left everything else including $50 in gift cards, wife's armani shades etc

so my patience was very short last night

I was blaming you lol -

that totally sucks, I understand why your short.... and all that stuff ****es me off too! but its more gratifying exposing a theif for what they are with no way for them to back out of doing it, than to call em out - all I'm saying

because there are some pretty weird rules on this site, public identifying of the person might not be accepted by Admins. But I do encourage you to send me the person's name and screen name - I already have a "list" of good guys bad guys

Rules aren't "weird". You can't post the name of someone unless they've been charged and convicted of the crime. Or it gets ugly. FOI is an ugly mess to jump into

I have a massive security camera system setup at my business. I love finding thieves, especially catching them when they are still in the building. Cops are rarely called.

Theft, though a victimless crime for the most part, has to be one of the lowest forms of criminality, that takes only the lowest people to commit.

I am quite certain the person whom did it is reading this. You'll get yours.

so can reef is worried about liability is what your saying?

I've been on other boards non reef related where names are always used - no legal things come of it, and its of my opinion that especially in the case of bad ethics, I endorse it.

my opinion is obviously different then yours, so yes... it will remain weird to me - because its an opinion. You can back up with what you believe might be the law, and I can back up with what i think is the law (the law is just that...not clearly defined)

just like the dress is blue and black

so for curiosity sake I'm open ears in the message box in knowing not who the thief is.... but who was the person known accidentally taking two bags of corals they didn't pay for
