    Hey! Just wanted to briefly introduce myself - My name is Dan, from Chicago and am a privately contracted K9 Officer (Explosive Detection/Patrol) here is my partner in [fighting] crime, K9 Pedro:

    I've been heavly involved in reefing for the past several years. Prior I had a ton of freshwater tanks but the saltwater bug got me and its taken over. I am a member of several forums, primarily CMAS (Chicago Marine Aquarium Society) and ChicagoReefs.com. Zoas and Palys are my addicting (although I love most coral), I am known on the Chicago forums for having Z/Ps... if you're looking for something between 3-4 of us we probably have it.


    I currently have a 120gal Display with a 20L frag/grow out tank - Things are busting at the seams and I'd love to come up there for your upcoming swap and share some of my goodies.


    Here's just some of my collection:

    As well as my frag tank which is even fuller than this:

    Hopefully I'm able to make it up to the swap and share a ton of frags with all of you and swap experiences. I easily have over 50 different types, should have frags of everything shown plus more ... I can hold nearly 400 frags in a 20L /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/wink.gif

    Oh and also forgot to mention, I'm also recently engages (Jan 7th) which is the main reason for thinning out my collection ... its time to start saving money for the upcoming wedding.

We also have vendors such as Gonzo's Coral Frags. Stop by my table and say hello! Again welcome and Congrats on the engagement!!

    Doesn't look like I'll be able to make it up for this swap as all the non-member hobbyist tables are filled, but I hope to make it up for the next one /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/smile.gif If there's something you were interested in, PM me and maybe we can work something out.
