You mean I could have got paid?? WTH!!!

I donated and didn't think about $$$.. Did it to help and see everyone have fun!!! I have a heart for this hobby :D

Dre, you are the sweetest person i met on this forum ...well, atleast till now

and yes, Dre for president
 
Ill make it easy on whoever wants to organize and run a growout. You want $20 polyps, ill put up my colony of utter chaos for $350, guaranteed at least 18 viable polyps for a fair contest, and a few more smaller ones. This was at my last count a few weeks ago. Puts the polyps under $20 each. No need to waste time or effort hunting around or begging LFS to help sourcing a nice polyp. Need to know and make a deal sometime today as it would help to have the money for some medical bills we need to pay off. Dre & Tiff will vouch these are genuine UC as I went with them to Mai's house the day I picked the frag up.

I think this would be a great colony for the contest, not only is it a nice polyp, but it sounds like we will be helping out a fellow reefer. If you guys would like I will front the money for the colony and help with setting up the contest. I have a frag tank, coral saw and all necessary fagging tools. Let me know what you guys would like to do. I do not want to step on anyone's toes by moving forward with contacting Fishbeard. Thanks
 
That would be a nice growout paly. Thanks for offering. I do however see the contest fee going up to around 35 per person. This way there is a little prize money and room for fresh blades and plugs.

How about you frag em gorge. Your a pro with experience then someone could pickup all to get em out. No traffic your way.

Who wants to run this? I have ideas but won't have tank space to house and I'm inconveniently south of the majority.
 
I just don't have the time or desire to frag them up, and same as you said, my costs would go up to frag them. Id rather pass a healthy colony along to whoever wants to run the growout.

If you guys want them, ill toss in the full bag of acrylic eshopps plugs I have as well to help out a little bit, but some people complained about them before.
 
If need be, we can always cap the number of participants once the number of healthy frags is determined.
 
If you cap the number of people then the people from the last grow out should get first dibs on if they want to get in on it new peeps would have to wait. Also fish said about 18 good polyps we should take a poll of how many people would do it this time so we don't commit to that 18 polyp and 35 people want to get in
 
Yeah just looked it up there were 30 people last time so a 18 to 20 polyp rock might not be viable

Yea but last time I pushed it hard as a BIG PAYOUT contest with lots of prizes and huge cash prizes that draw a lot more interest. With the low payout percentage of a higher cost polyp up front I'd expect the contest would pull around 20 or less people.
 
How about colony of My Clementine for contest?
