I'm just up the road in Hercules and planning on attending the swap this weekend. If this is still available and Vince will be attending I'm happy to ferry it down.

I'm in! This'll be my first, since I somehow got my dates mixed up for the last one.

Glad to hear he's retiring, not happy to hear they're closing their doors. This was my first lfs, in fact they're the reason I got into salt the first time around 07. If I hadn't moved out to Hercules when I did they'd probably still be my go to for livestock. It's be nice if Diablo Corals can...

So I picked up a few frags last week and I'm now acclimating them in the sand: Green Cloves Bubblegum Digi "cherry blossom" Cyphastrea "outerspace" Psammocora Red Setosa Last but not least here is what the tank looks like like today:

Woof, I've been bad at keeping this up to date. Finally getting to a place of stability here in the last few months and started to add some more coral. This bit of Monti I picked up from JVU is fully recovered and encrusted. It's put on a bit of growth in the last month or so. This sponge...

I don't know if you can correct for stupid to be honest. I just got it in my head sometime in the last few weeks that is was Sunday. A slightly smarter person could just as easily have looked at a calendar anytime in the last month or so. This is 100% me being lazy / not paying enough attention...

Unreal, I somehow got in my head that this was Sunday (today) and not Saturday. Sorry I missed meeting everyone.

I wanted to drop a quick line to folks and say thank you for getting this together. I'm looking forward to joining, this will be my first chance to attend a bareefer's event and I'm pretty excited to have chance to actually meet some people into this hobby. Looking forward to it.

Thanks for the input! looks like I have a few more avenues to research here.

Well, this is not a post I was hoping to ever make. Long story short, I did not properly quarantine my early additions to the tank and I think that's come back to bite me in the end. My juvi yellow tang that I added arround February 14th or so was acting a bit stressed two days ago so I started...

Good to meet you today @Apon glad I had a chance to pass along the anemone that @gmdcdvm gave me the other day.

@Apon Please pm to arrange pickup. I'm out in Hercules but will come meet you near Concord / Walnut Creek if that helps.

I fully expected these to move around a bit as soon as I put them in the tank, so far both seem pretty content to open up and soak up the light on the rock you provided. I'm going to move it to a slighly higher flow area to see if I can split them up a bit today.

Thank you gmdcdvm, it was excellent to meet you this morning! I'll let you know how the acclimation proccess goes and update some pics if you'd like. My appologies to Apon/Markovkaa, the two moved onto the same rock as it was on it's way to me, so currently I've got two on one rock. as soon...

I'd love to pick up one of these if no one else is already responded. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
