Would anyone be interested in having a frag swap event? Not one with vendors, but just people sharing what they can and buying things on the cheap if they are without frags. I know this kind of happens at every meeting, but thought more people would come out if it was its own thing. just a thought, i have some acros, and a ton of zoas and frog spawn. Frog spawn LOVES my frag tank. like a new head every 3 weeks. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Was wondering to................no posts so was it a bust ? As for a frag swap would just need a place to do it. Also would probably need pics before hand as we all know corals sort of get pissed when traveling...........

Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk i love trading/buying/selling.. so I’m in as long as I’m in town! I missed the first half+ of the meeting (mom and hour late returning my son lol), but I thought it was great! Most people are probably running around prepping for Christmas 🎄 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremevans Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 I'd be in for a frag swap. Who doesn't like beer and frags? The meeting was good and there was a healthy group of folks swapping frags.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youcallmenny Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 It's like the frag swap thread is having aftershocks. 🤣 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The weekend before christmas....yeah, I'm not busy. Plus, after reading some stuff on R2R I have been really thinking about how reefing can be a really great community thing. I think the ridiculous cost of acros can make people less likely to share their stuff. When I look at my frag tank I am not like "wow, what can I sell this for" I am more like...hmmm, who would give me a beer for that? Do you think February would be a good time? Time enough to frag and get things healed, take pictures. Maybe I will set up a photobucket account so everyones pictures are in one place. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think we have details lined up for our meetings over the next few months so we could consider doing this in conjunction with one of those if you wanted to. Just need a venue big enough to host. If you got the shop sorted out by then that might work... although parking could be a challenge. We might need some additional tank capacity - not sure if anyone has some mobile frag systems. Something to think about anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What_The_Frag Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 Beginning of February would be great. I should have some frags ready by then. 15 hours ago, pdxmonkeyboy said: really thinking about how reefing can be a really great community thing.

Salted_Waffles Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I like they idea of getting a swap going. Getting everyone to share pieces and add to our collective stock. It’s nice because if you ever lose a piece or have a crash it’s like your friends have them banked for you so you can get them back later.

Hey Brian @pdxmonkeyboy, you interested in doing something like this at your place as a feature of a meeting? Along with your tank setup, I think it would make for a pretty sweet event. Maybe your neighbors would let us park in their yards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could work it in later in the year as well if you decide you want to host... just thinking "out loud". Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
