Blackout - Rebuild - Group buy

[Josh]

OK, it may be a bit early for everyone, but I wanted to get the ball rolling here.

Who is interested in a group buy? I plan on getting SPS frags, crabs, snails, and maybe a nice clam. My first thoughts are to contact Pat Monaghan.

Let me know your thoughts.

 

[Rebels23]

Great idea Josh. I would be in.

 

[wedfr]

im in for a frag or 2

 

[zhangg3]

I am in for some snails to replace the lost ones.

 

[SWW1268]

I'm interested.

 

[pmui]

I'm good for some frags.

 

[Josh]

Well, as it turns out I won't be able to buy any livestock until after I get back from my honeymoon in September. Can someone else help put together a group buy?

[SWW1268]

I could help out. I'll contact Patrick. We'll also need to pick a date for this. I'm guessing 2 to 3 weekends from now.

Steve,

I'll get the next one.

Thanks,
Josh

Can everyone take a look at SPSFrags.com and email me with what they're interested in?

Also, are you folks interested in ordering stuff from anywhere else?

I'm also thinking about placing the order on 9/5 and having the pick up at my home in Queens on 9/6. If the dates are good for everyone and we can have everything organized by then, then that's what we can do.

 

[Josh]

For anyone that lost livestock during the blackout, remember to get a fresh batch of critters!

Crabs and snails are typically the first things to die from oxygen deprivation. Don't forget to stock up or you will be dealing with algae soon.

I wish I could get in on the order, but I will be in Belize on my honeymoon.

Take care.

I'm in for a couple frags

 

[SWW1268]

I've contacted Patrick and he says he'll give us 15% off our order!

Also, we may need to change the pick up date to 9/13. I'll let everyone know once I find out. Would that matter to anyone?

Does SPSFrags sell critters?

 

[stealyourhouse]

How about a group buy for Inland Aquatics?

I know that a lot of us have lost fish here, and they have a great selection of captive raised fish and corals. They seem a bit pricey, but it's worth it to support an organization like theirs.

SPSFrags.com does not have critters. He has SPS, zoos, and other soft corals. He's offering us 15% off and possible other freebies depending on the size of our order. The date would also have to be changed to Saturday, 9/13, for pick up.

There was also a suggestion for www.justphish.com. Is anybody else interested in eithr justphish or inlandaquatics.com? If there is interest, we can always set up another thread.

I'm interested in a clam from SPSfrags.com possibly a frag also. I like A26 the crocea clam. Let me know what I need to do.
I also need about 20 lbs of live rock so I'd be willing to join in an order from justfish.com.

Thanks Don

Hey Steve,

I'm interested in JustPhish. I'll start another thread.

Don,

Since the clam is one of a kind, you should send a note to Patrick at [email protected]. He may need either the payment or a deposit to hold the clam for you. I've also sent him a note to check on availablility and to reserve the clam and frags.

Ray,

Good idea.

Steve

I'm sorry I didn't mean to go outside the bounds of the group buy. If you were to put me down for one clam and 1 frag. I trust that they will be of good quality, and just let me know how who and when to pay and pick stuff up. Forgive me this would be my first group buy.
