Since these Xenia corals are so common maybe someone in Calgary would like to give me a frag.

At one time Tony had a tank that was totally polluted with the stuff. He travelled across the city to give me some when I first set up. Maybe there is still some hanging around somewhere. Most people are happy to get rid of it.

Xtasia,
Got a red mushroom rock with 7 shrooms and 1 neon green BTA clone, if you're interested. Also, candycanes and some assorted shrooms.

Know when to stop
Horsing around is fine. But when the unintended target of the horsing around has obviously expressed their disappreciation, it should be a good indication to certain individuals to cease their activities REGARDLESS whether they feel justified or not. If the item being offered for trade is less than desirable (in your opinion), then move on to the next tread because at that point, there is nothing to post. My understanding is that this is a Buy/Sell/Trade forum and it does not advocate opinions of the items being bought, sold or traded. Your experiences with certain species of livestock can be expressed in the appropriate forum and frankly, I'm not 100% sure which forum is the most appropriate. However I am 100% sure that this is not the forum. There are a lot of new members starting out and may not be as "advanced" as others and they do appreciate the livestock being offered for trade. Perhaps it is best to speak for yourself in a different forum and at your own leisure, not on someone else's tread and at their expense.
One would expect that common courtesy would have stopped certain individuals from continuing to justify why they do not appreciate the specific livestock being traded, but failing that, one would expect that perhaps common sense would prevail.  Most people apologized and then moved on ...... which is a good thing. But all should have just apologized and then moved on....... which is the right thing.Xtasia - good luck with your demands. It looks like there are people who do like Xenias. And like I had PMed, the ones I got from you at the meet have all attached to the rock and they are all looking great. Thanks again.

Oy vey..
Thanks for the support Chin, I'm really glad the Xenia worked out for you
 . It was one of my first trades, and a bit hard as they were my first babies to leave the nest, so to speak... Seahorse, I've PMed you. Thanks. It is extremely disheartening as a new person in this hobby to have not just one, but a few people post to your thread to basically say what little you have to offer is common and undesirable. So undesirable in fact, that people offer to give it away for free. It just made me want to crawl under a rock and avoid the entire 'reefing community'. Remember.. one day one of us noobies will have something you'll want a frag of... Please don't ridicule us... oh yeah, apologies accepted :P Thanks.
