    Cash is really the only necessity. A small cooler, or large one depending on how much you are planning on buying is another good thing to bring along. A lot of the vendors will be nice enough to hold your items until the end of the event, just don't forget to go back and get them. If you're planning on not getting back home right away a heat pack or two should also be in the plans.

    Hey! I just saw the date for you groups swap - I'm a Chicagoland Reefer (member of ChicagoReefs.com as CMAS - Chicago Marine Aquarium Society). I have a major addiction to zoas and palys and love to collect them - so much that my grow out tank is full and colonies in my 120gal Display need to be trimmed - plus i need to start saving some money for the new wedding budget.

    I'd love to come up there and set up a hobbyist table and share my zoa/paly collection with you guys! I tried PMing some swap coordinators but haven't heard anything back, can someone point me in the right direction of who to contact.

    Thanks!

    I sure hope they can find you a spot. Sounds like you have a large variety of very nice zoas and palys and I know a lot of members in this area would be interested.

    Thanks for the kind words - I'd love the opportunity to spend the day with new reefers and swap both frags and experience. I'd be more than willing to post some of the frags I have available but don't want to jump the gun or violate any forum rules. I'm by any means a stores, just a hobbyist that has an addiction and has been collecting/growing z/p's out for several years. The way I have my 20L frag tank set up, I could potiently bring 300-400 frags ... and I could probably fill that up /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/wink.gif

    Yep seen it. We are not really like that over here. If you show a general interest in more then just selling corals. We don't mind a little frag selling . As long as you show some general interest in the club and others in the club. It's why we all are in the club as well.
    Hope to see you at the Fest.

    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.
