    Sounds really cool... Is this exactly what it sounds like? People just set-up selling frags and salt water related items?

    Care to share some more details? Sounds like a cool event! Wish I could go!

    Yes it is, It was held at a high school and have rooms filled with frag tanks from members or reef central. They has great deals on frags 1'' zoa's 4 for $20 I bought 4 and a 2 head hammer for $18 and a nice red starfish. It was packed they had people with plates from Virginia, Tennessee. I will go to another one again well worth the $5 admission that covered my wife and I.

    Man, those are some good deals on frags. Saw a few beautiful frags at the LFS this past weekend. They just redid their whole SW area and they had some absolutely beautiful hammer colonies with multi-heads and they were around $60. I'm not sure if that is a lot for this size frag (i'd venture to call it a colony at that point), but it was larger than a tennis ball. Also some nice torches that were a bit bleached. However, and LFS will never compare to these type of frag swaps. the local hobbyist will always beat an LFS

    Ya I can't wait for the next one. This is the best way to fill your tank. And that's a good price for a hammer
