    I'm hoping to find someone that is located close enough to drive to and has some of the corals on my wish list. I hail from Beresford, SD which is almost smack in between Sioux Falls and Sioux City on I-29.
    My list:
    Xenia-preferably PomPom or SilverBranch
    Kenya Tree
    Monti's- digita's or encrusting, ultimate would be an Elkhorn
    any yellow, red or blue softies..fiji leather for example
    Acro's
    super colored zoa's
    I know I can buy any of these online but have had 3 real bad experiences with getting corals by mail. Two different orders had doa xenyia and one order froze solid cuz the vendor shipped even though I told him this part of the country was in a blizzard with -50 windchills.
    Also there's my LFS who I consider a friend and mentor but there's an issue with flatworms and every frag I've bought that I'm not cool with anymore.
    So if there's someone here who can help me fulfill my vision it will be most appreciated!
    **edit**
    I'm not looking for freebies, so please don't get that impression. Just hoping to find someone with frags or corals they'd be willing to frag. Especially the Xenia. I've heard it is very hard to ship and I can't get it locally.

    Hey, i am from Cherokee, IA which isn't too far away from you. I think I know what you are talking about with the flat worms. Mini Critters has them pretty bad, but a fresh water dip has always done the trick for me. No flat worms in my tank and i have bought 4 open brains, 4 zoa colonies, a clam, and some misc. chalices, and LPS and always fresh water dipped them a few times before putting in tank and they all did great and no sign of flatworms. Its pretty cool to see the flat worms just fall off of the corals when he fresh water dips them.
    I have a few different types of zoas, and leathers if you want, PM me if interested.
    Also i got to Sioux City often and can meet ya there sometime.
