High Tide Aquatics

What are you bringing to the Swap!?!

I don't think people are only interested in SPS, I just think with all the beautiful and generous SPS selections/pics here people like me bringing mostly common corals are intimidated to post.

FWIW I personally am interested in both the RBTA and rhodactis you posted.
Yeah I guess, I just was trying to gauge what's "cool" in the hobby. Looking around it seems if its not a "bounce" mushroom or a "jawbreaker" there's not much care for it. Hell even the mushroom subform on reef central is all but deal.

Well I'm glad at least one person will like it, up side too is you know what it looks like, as I doubt it'll look so nice in a cup under overhead lights of the room we'll be in :D

Not bringing much, rose bubble tip anemones, rhodactis mushroom, unsure about my 3rd coral.

Not sure if people are all SPS crazy, or if there's still some love for softies, this one has a few colors in it. Didn't feel like turning off the pumps though so ignore the distortion, camera pic (but turned out pretty damn good)

beautiful. I will be looking for ur rhodactis.
 
Ok filled up the frag holding area today and just took a quick camera snapshot of most everything (I think there's another RBTA floating around outside the picture), found a couple of the smaller rhodactis floating around (quarter size), might do a mushroom pack and just shove smaller versions of both in there. Not sure what kind the greenish one is Discosoma or Actinodiscus , does look like it has little bubbles on it in the picture, so it might be a "bounce" one too :D (but I won't label it as such)

These are under metal halides & LEDs, (blues and neutral whites), the pump in the picture is a Rio 600 I believe (for size comparison)

I think you can bring multiples of the same type of coral as long as you bring at least 3 different types of corals.. (i.e. If you bring 4 frags, but 2 of the frags are the same type of coral and the others are unique).
 
So here is my final list.

Reef Raft The Vinh ( I will bring 2 frags, small goes to swap, bigger goes to raffle)
Jason Fox Fox Flame (can be swapped for The Vinh for the raffle)
BC Spainbow (this is not from the DBTC @Ibn, came from a package of sticks that I bought)
ORA Bird of Paradise X2 + a large knob of the base.
Tricolor Tortusa X2
Leng Sy Montipora (nice size frag)
Copps Cala Cali
Bubblegum Millepora
DTW Purple Chronic (local guy)
Neon Green Montipora Cap X2
Neon Green Tyree toadstool
Forest Fire digitata X2
1 head of neon green hammer
Green and purple hairy rhodactis X2
 
My final list:
Forest Fire Digitata X3
Pink Boobies (2+ eyes)
Blue Hornets X 2 (4 heads and 7 heads)
Bright orange acan
Blue Stylophora
Bubblegum Digi
Blue Digitata X2
Ora Neon Birdsnest X2
 
Utter chaos, Cali tort, orange crush echinata, orange mushroom, blue paly, fire n ice zoa. Vamp zoa and blow pop for DBTC folks I didn't manage to coordinate meet ups with yet, and whatever else gets in my way when I go to grab those corals. If I can't get utter chaos separated I'll sub with red planet acro.
