Wanted: Critter starter donations/ trades

Newreeflady · 08/03/2010, 07:11 AM

Hi guys,

I set up my new system: 56g column tank

I have taken some rock and sand from my existing 20g, but I would really love to add some diversity as I'm trying to get a healthy dsb going. It'd be great to get some more spaghetti worms, stomatella, copepods, etc. I've considered buying a kit, but it's costly and it'd be great if someone could help me out.

Anyone willing to donate a handful of sand or rubble with some good life present? I could give up some sand, live rock and/or rubble from my 20g. I also have a good bit of dry base rock on hand if you prefer. Elmira area would be ideal for pickup. I'm in Ithaca and could make it out this weekend. Prefer not to drive more than 1 hour. I could def make it to the trade this weekend, too. That would probably be cool to hit anyhow

Thanks so much!

Angela

If only you asked last night... I just sucked out my remaining sand and it's now buffering my back lawn
