    I'll get with you after the 24th. I should be able to get down that way maybe the 30th. I have a 90 gallon tank. It is 48x18.

    When I get home I'll see if the piece I have is big enough.

    Hey David. I can rehome some stuff. I've got the 93 gallon and 29 biocube. I don't care to pay for the stuff either. But I'd make a trip down. Just let me know.

    In the 93 I've got a magnificent foxface, yellow tang, starry blenny, & mandarin. In the 29, just a pair of clownfish. Whatever corals would be alright too. I know that sunset monti was nice!

    Doc I think you are making the deal even better! I was going to be happy with keeping a frag and you getting back the bigger colony of anything you offer.

    Hmmm. I don't know the answer to that one Kim. The fine sand isn't an issue. I'd run it by the fish guys on Reef2Reef.

    No go Kim. The word used was "disaster". Two burrowing fish in a large tank is doable but in a 29 there's just not enough room for peace to rein.

    Doc is right. Two borrowing fish are a no go. They will fight 1 will win. I wouldn't put 2 in my 125.

    Hiya,

    Well bummer. I really liked the look of that jawfish. Thanks for checking that out for me.

    Pearly Jawfish are pretty cool. I have seen several in the Keys. I absolutely love them.

    There's a big Yellow Flanked Fairy Wrasse and a beautiful little Azure Damsel(very peaceful) still unspoken for. I also need someone to take "Bertha" my big blue linckia starfish. If someone doesn't want to keep Bertha longterm I would take her back once my tank is back up. The linckia probably needs a fairly mature tank. I haven't decided but I may let my young male pintail wrasse go as well.

    Got to meet Michael (mhattenhauer) this morning. He took the first load....my pair of black and white ocellaris and the pink margin fairy.

    David, I'm interested in the sunset monti and the yellow pocillipora.

    The meteor shower and tri color acro sounds nice to me. Maybe having a tdrawing like we do for frag selection would be an option.

    That's what I was thinking. Put everyone's name in a hat and draw. That won't penalize folks who log on to the site later on the day.

    Hiya,

    The raffle sounds great. I won't know what I might want until I see it.
