I will be bringing a coral that I got from @Thales . I need help to identify it and if someone wants it, you can have it. If not, I shall keep it in my tank for a bit longer and eventually place it in DBTC. It is green in colour when the lights are on.

More importantly, does anyone want Costco dessert? I like their flan but can buy whatever most of you like =)
There are lots of options, they have cheese cakes, regular chocolate and vanilla cakes as well.

Should I just put you down for a costco surprise dessert in addtion to Sparkling water?

Given the relatively low number of RSVPs, I'm not sure it's worth organizing a semi-formal swap. Maybe a googlesheet with DBTC and some trades makes more sense? How many folks are interested in bringing an ultra coral from those that plan to attend this event?

Happy to organize something just want to apply the right level of rigor for the level of interest here.
Any trades happening?
