Hello Everyone,

I want to get some stock for my 750g tank. Frags are just too small for a tank this size. Looking for pieces around baseball sized or larger.

I don't care if it has a fancy name, I don't care if its the hottest coral everyone is looking for - I'm just looking for good sized, healthy, colorful coral to fill in my giant tank.

I'll bring cash, no app transfers. If you need some cash for Xmas Credit Card bills or upcoming Tax bills, then let me bring you some green backs.

You don't need to post to this thread if you don't want people to know you're looking for some extra cash. Just shoot me an email - PM's are slow and irregular for me - to Dave at o2manyfish dot com.

If you know me, you know these are going to a good home. If you don't know me - I'm not going to chop these up and resell them to make $$. I don't sell coral. Anything I'm successful in overgrowing gets moved to my outdoor frag tanks and gets donated. Donated to schools, vets, first responders, those who had a crash etc. I don't sell.

I'm located in the valley, but am not afraid to travel to pickup some nice pieces. But please don't message me from San Diego if you only have a golf all sized piece you want to rehome.

Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Dave,

If you want to come down I can give you a grapefruit sized something SPS… It’s a fancy named coral from Adam at battle corals. I have 2 of them and you can have one. Also, you can have about 1/2 of my frog skin ( you probably get 6” X 8” X 4” or muchI can cut without murdering it. I’m tired of watching to see what it goes to battle with next. Also a 6” or so frag of a pretty cool purple tip bluish body stag horn. It’s the kind of thing that is too big for my 225 but just perfect for a 750 or an ocean.


Oh, and BTW, don’t even think of bringing any money. Actually, you could give my wife $100 so I don’t have to hear about “why are you giving your coral away?!?!”? I might kick in a couple hundred too LOL Happy wife > $$$

also, I haven’t added anything in over 6 months, I have no pests except one who is studying for med schools and the other who is getting ready for law school but neither of them attack coral.



For anyone who does not know who Dave is, he has never charged anyone a penny for any coral in over 30 years that I know of. That said, he is a man of his word and if you do want to get some $$ for your coral, treat him fair and I‘m sure he will have 0 problem paying you

I got that photo the last time I was visiting Ali. That's what he had hidden in the skimmer collection cup. It stunk but it's still buys coral :)

I was going to say, that doesn’t even look like your house but it’s been too long since I’ve been to see you so i wasn’t sure.

Wayyyyy too long.

My 07 is building my CA and NFA compliant AMD-65 not far from you. We should do a range trip when I finish it :D
