15 slots. each person must reserve thier spot by emailing me at reefnut@clearwire.net And THEN entering ID, Item, and slot number, in this thread
Shipping-
We will not use an actual thermos as weather is getting nice just a insulated box as described in the shipping thread found at the top of the coral and trading catigory. If anyone has any shipping questions please feel free to email or ask in open thread. It is not difficult and newbies are absolutley welcome to participate.
Once all are signed up and validated we ship on May 14th, Last day to sign up is May 8th.
lets try to keep this simple.
-Sign up in this thread with the below information only after you have emailed me your "Item", "ID" "Contact info" and "Slot number" in the trade. Email me at Reefnut@clearwire.net Do not post personal info in the main board.

(The slot number your claiming is NOT the order in what you recieve or who you are sending to. It is a seat in the 15 participants.)
As for what you will recieve- once we have all 15 signed up with thier items and confirmed emails. A random selection for the 15 spots will be drawn lottery style for who recieves what. If someone has a particular desire then please email it to me as I am sure most can be accomodated. But no promises. It will be a random drawing for shipping/recieving.
Size-
Nothing tiny, no 1/2inch frags or plugs with 3 heads of Zoa. Please make the frag you are sending of decent quality and size. Nothing HUGE and please nothing extreme. If Zoa- make it 10-15 headed. If candy make it 3 headed. Mushrooms make it 3-4 on the rock. Ok you get the picture. I am not the frag police for what is worth what so dont ask. Just try and take care of the guy/gal thats recieving it and be fair.
Items-
Everyone participating please read the thread so you are not duplicating an item someone else is sending. Items that are being sent should be crossed off list of eligible items to send for new participants. Also to be sure of your slot number is correct. No duplicate items.
SO lets get this rolling: Deadline to sign up AND EMAIL info is May 8th. If I do not recieve email your spot wil not be held. We all ship May 14th. If shipping info or directions on how can also be addressed via email OR in this thread.
Reefnut@clearwire.net
If you have overgrowth or a frag of something extra in your tank, why not trade it for something new. All of you with seniored tanks, this is your chance to help out the newbies and share your overgrowth with someone that may not have a chance to get it locally.
Same as the previous trade, I am not going to police size or species but as always, try to show some love when sending your frag. No fish or anenomes allowed without previous email approval.
let get this baby rockin......

I personally like the USPS overnight express service. If its zoo or mushrooms you can usually just to 2 day and everything is fine. All depends on your recipients address and weather condidtions. Shipping will typically run 6-20 bucks for most packages.

before everyone gets scared to death about this little guy, its not literally deadly to people, it is just very agressive towards other corals and when in a tenticle fighting match with a neighboring coral it will always win.
Jesses89- welcome to the trade, but please email your ID, Name, Shipping info, and item to my email so I can enter you into a slot. You will be slot #7 once confirmed.
thanks,

just sent email.
Can i cut the piece in the tank? or will it release toxins or something? do i need to cut it out of the tank? ty

I would cut it out of he tank if shards of this guy hits any other corals it will start to fight them and cause massive damage. so to minimize that risk I always pull it out to a bowl or something then cut and put back in the tank and discard any water I used just to be safe.
