what's AV Ulva?
Might be aptasia and ulva (if they are mine)


Out of curiosity, do you think it would have helped more if I also put the day of the week with the date so there's no confusion about which day is the 26th?
For me? Yes, next time. I cleared my calendar though, so I wouldn't miss it.

Thank you Tim, the BOD, and volunteers for making the event happen! It was great to put faces to names and just enjoy being around others in this hobby after a year of porch pickups and only online chat.


would love to see who ended up with my frags; hope you enjoy them
@Krak256 I got one your sunkist bounces! I had to do a double take when I saw the label :oops:. Many many thanks for contributing this one, I might get into the shroom craze now.

@JVU I got one of your Yuma mushroom. The one on the right in the picture above. Thank you! Do you have a picture of the "mother" ? The frag color is pretty dull in my crappy 14k QT lightning. I see some green in the middle, and purple/red on most of the body. I'm sure it will looks better with better light.

I brought a “regular“ Yuma mushroom that is a little dull in coloration, and I brought several “Rainbow Yuma” mushrooms that have a lot more vibrant coloration, and correspond to my DBTC chain. I labeled the rainbow ones as such.

There are pics of the Rainbow Yuma in the DBTC thread:

There was soooooo much good stuff there, I had a "middle" picking letter (C) and often came in a bit late since yanno trying to keep swap organized :)... didn't really want to take anything too special though, as right now I'm thinking of a different direction. So grabbed a few zoas, and couple yumas, then noticed when I got home all the zoas were from @Finnaddict and all the yumas were from @henergizer, wasn't planned when I picked just looked at the coral name and picked things I was familiar with.

Edit: Also picked up "the acronym zoa" IWOL aoi zoa :)

Cool. Regular one is fine as well. Good practice piece. If it thrive in my tank, I can invest in some fancier Yuma.

I would love to, but you’re pretty far away. I’m in South Bay. Let’s see how the regular Yuma do after a couple of months. If you’re heading this way, or I’m heading your way, we will connect.

the 2 frags I got from coral Reefer that I thought died, comes back alive! I know eventually I’ll be killing frags, but so far everything is alive.

btw, in Barcode , can I untag frag that I marked as dead?

With events starting up again it makes it a lot easier to trade frags with people farther away

I wonder if mail ordering hundreds of urine sample cups sent to a residence in the forest puts you on any federal agency’s watch list?

I always leave a big mess. My wife is so patient with me. So far.
They already know we run a meth lab, so it’s ok.
