2009 TCMAS FRAG SWAP - Page 3

FastFish720 · 03-17-2009, 04:14 PM

I would say certainly bring drygood items. This is a great time to unload some of that used equipment that might be valuable for someone just starting there aquarium to have. I wouldn't say bring a 220 gallon aquarium and bring it inside. But maybe make a sign saying you have a 220 gallon aquarium in your truck. For David, certainly bringing the dry rock I think would be a great idea. Lots of new members would love to have affordable dry rock.

If dry goods are not welcome no problem-I'll just seek permission from mnpilot to sell stuff out of his backyardj/k

You guys have been in the club longer than 95% of the memberbase, and have contributed more than 97% of the members.... IMHO, do want you want to...

I would l think you could bring anything hobby related. I remember pass swaps where people would bring that box of old equipment laying around that they want to get rid of.

Is the google map right? I am going to be using it to drive up after the www.RMMAC.org meeting and I would hate to get up there only to realize I was lost. The fact that I am bringing the whole family would just make failure more painful

danreefs · 03-20-2009, 12:08 PM

Will TCMAS members have on name tags i have lots of corals to pick up and i do not know who looks like who.

coldwaterreefer · 03-20-2009, 12:59 PM

danreefs · 03-20-2009, 08:59 PM

Whats the name of the LOCATION building for the swap?

irish02bk · 03-21-2009, 11:30 AM

Do you have to be a memeber to go to this? Or can you go and then be a memeber, does it cost $$ i would like to go.

wolrey · 03-21-2009, 11:50 AM

Anyone can go. My first meeting ever was a frag swap several years ago. It's completely free.

fivesmallworlds · 03-21-2009, 05:30 PM

Thanks everyone for a GREAT swap!!! Got plenty of nice stuff, sold some stuff... altogether it was a fantastic afternoon.

hypoxia · 03-21-2009, 06:16 PM

Thank you for the swap. I got lotsa awesome stuff and got to meet some awesome new people.

And I suppose hanging out with the people I already knew was okay too. . . .

Just a pity that Subway doesn't have any vegetarian food.
