Hammer coral, NE Ohio

I have 5 frags of my green branching hammer coral that I would like to trade or sell, hopefully locally. I am about 40 minutes west of Cleveland in Elyria.
The smallest frag I have has 2 heads and the largest is 4. I think $6 a head is a fair price so that is what I'll ask. Trades are also very welcome. I'm looking for colorful zoos that I do not currently own, frogspawn, or montipora cap. I will consider other stuff as well, post or PM me an offer and I'll let you know.
Lastly I do not wish to ship, however if you really desire a frag and its worth the risk and extra money to have it shipped it probably cost around $30 for shipping overnight (estimate) or $10 for UPS ground (estimate)
I will include a picture of the original colony now, later (once my white lights turn on) I will attempt to get good pictures of the individuals.

Ok, as promised here are some pictures of the frags, They aren't fully open since I've been moving them around all day trying to find a spot to keep them until I get rid of them.
Also, I currently have 2 attached to pieces of rock and 3 attached to an old clam shell. If I do ship I will probably remove them from the rock/shell so they weigh less to ship, however they should be very easy to attach to whatever with epoxy or superglue.

I still have 4 left, all with 2-4 heads. I know hammer coral isn't rare or anything but I've never seen any others these bright green color.
Make me an offer!

Still no interest?
Well I took some updated photos of the frags today since they are now open, just to give a rough idea on the size and color.

Oh, I also have some green mushrooms and some brown and orange zoos that I could sell or trade. I had planned on trading the mushrooms before but that hasn't gone through so make me an offer!
Ok, pictures.

Ok, so I still have some left. I am holding a few but I have 2 different frags, approximately 3 heads each that I can trade. I also have the zoos pictured that I will frag if anyone is interested.

Pretty much anything that I don't already have is an option.
I don't have enough light for most SPS so a Montipora cap would be the only type of SPS I'd like.
Pretty much any LPS as long as it is colorful
Colorful leathers, anything besides green sinularia since I already have that.
Zoanthids or mushrooms - again colorful but I already have several colors so I wouldn't list them all.

I am willing to pay $5 per head time however many you have left, plus $3 for each mushroom. No more then $100 total to includes FEDEX overnight. PM me if that is acceptable.
Thanks

The mushrooms are being held for someone locally and I only have one more hammer coral frag that isn't spoken for and it had 3 heads. If you are still interested let me know.

I want to make the shipping cost worthwhile. Do you have anything else you can sell? I want some colorful corals.

Sorry, unfortunately I don't have anything else that is ready to frag right now. Maybe in a month or so I will have enough growth to frag some colorful zoos but the hammer is it for now.

thank you

It's looking good...Its hard to tell how open it is from the picture but if you want it to open more, I find that they open up HUGE with very little flow. But it looks healthy. I'm glad its doing well for you.
