So Glen and I are heading down to Dave's place on Sunday to take a look at his new goodies, and there seemed to be some interest in others tagging along so lets make this a nice little road trip!

If you are interested in going post up, but let's try and keep this to people who are for sure. Dave isn't available until 4 pm so we were thinking of leaving around 2 ish This would be a mini day trip and sounds like a lot of fun.

Sounds like fun, hopefully he has lots of nice stuff left after the fragfest Saturday.  Tony, are your params better or is this an LPS run?

To be honest I am not that prepared for the TO show, just been really busy with work. Definitely be lots at my house tonnes of different Acans and chalice as well as all the SPS that are on my site.  Some are cut some arn't but I can cut them on Sunday if there is anything people want from the display tank.

SSC will be on sale for Sunday only ;)

Boy how I wish I could shell out for an Orange Passion (lustttttt) or some Shortcake, but I've got to be more realistic and frugal with my funds... more than anything I'm looking to grab some Red Dragon and one or two other lower end pieces like a stag and a tricolor likely.  I don't know why but Dave's got RD listed roughly $50 less than anywhere else I've seen!

I think most of all I just want to drool over his DT.  Don't worry, I'll wipe up after myself :D

I believe RD is a really good grower for Dave, being a good grower he is able to pass the savings onto hobbyists :)

Yup, that acro grows like a weed, I am shocked it is so expensive elsewhere.  Most of the time my prices reflect growth rate and rarity of the for coral.

and thats exactly how prices should work :)

I've got a piece that's red from you, and purple from nagy.  Both are really quick growers from what I am observing.  Now purple monster or chalice....that's another conversation altogether.

Last month I also picked up 2 massive colonies that look very similar to the purple monster.

Its a wild piece, so we will see how it does over the next 6 months in capitivity.  It's purple with a nice light blue polyp.

I am gonna have to leave Windsore and move to London. You guys seem to be pretty tight. It would be nice to have a few people to do coral runs or what not with. Maybe the next time you guys are gonna go to Dave's let me know in advance and I will come up there to go with you guys.

I'm going to have to wait for BS to let me know he's heading home, I think he said not to be there before 4:30, so 2pm won't work.  I'm still up for the trip, gotta get the ringing out of my ears.
