Chattanooga Swap!

[gnoles]

After touring downtown Ooltowah and surrounding communities (passing the place a minimum of four times) we arrived with an hour left to shop and visit the Chattanooga Frag Swap.

All I can say is wow... I didn't win anything, but I got a ton of great deals on corals and made an awesome trade with gflat that has me into acans now. The only way I could be happier would have been if the guy in front of me hadn't snatched up poolkeeper's radioactive green coral (didn't get the name, but the picture of the colony was unbelievable.)

Now I've got to spend some money on some super bulbs to complete my investment, because I have almost everything now. Take the sand and rock out and I have a very large frag tank!

Thanks Paul for making the trip with me... next adventure, to CRA to buy more salt tomorrow afternoon!

Time to go stare at the tank.

Sweet, my tank should be ready to go by the next swap, cant wait

 

[KingRicky]

Can't wait to see your new additions. I wish I could have gone.

Gnoles,
Got to say i had a blast getting lost around Ooltawah. The swap was great the vendors had so many frags and equipment.

I'm still mad i missed those Radium bulbs for $40 bucks

 

[gnoles]

Lawnmower races... next August! I hate that you missed the bulbs too... but after halfway cleaning the tank, I've found room for just a couple more frags.

Now it's off to halfway mow the yard before I get the boot!

I'm going to race my mower next year will just stay the night race the mower then go to the frag swap

curious about these lawn mower races....i think i would be intrigued. I hate being on restriction. Does anybody have an extra pump for flow laying around? Mine went out and I can't buy one till Zack takes me off restriction.

 

[BHAMR6]

Ive got a few mj 1200 and a mj 400 i also have a koralia 2 thats kevins but he shouldnt mind you using it

 

[gnoles]

Is restriction from us or the checkbook? Heck, Paul, Tell her she didn't have to spend money to have a good time at the swap.

 

[BHAMR6]

Thats right i spent $6 bucks on my mcdonalds and thats it and had a blast :moneygrubber:

Question about the lawn mower race; is it riding mowers only or can I enter my 21" push mower that I got from WalMart? It's got a big B&S engine and I just got it back from a tune-up last Monday. I know a guy named Amos that claims he can really soup up a lawn mower engine. Amos is a many talented guy. He can also fix the ice maker in your frig when it quits. He's expected to be out and back "on the street" by that time next year.

I was thinking it was a lawnmower blenny race. I only go to see blenny's crash.

I hope someone there saw me as I arrived 15 mintues before closing.

h@rry, I have fixed an ice maker before. LOL

 

[scubalauren]

I'm on restriction from the checkbook and you know if I had gone I would rationalize with myself and come up with a reason that I would have to have that piece and it would actually turn into a NEED TO HAVE IT, GOT TO HAVE IT...and that one and that one. You know what I mean? Paul, I will call you on that pump. I'm coming through Kimberly tomorrow or Sat morning.

 

[BHAMR6]

Sounds good i will be here Friday if you come Saturday i will be in Montgomery with Ricky but i will leave the pump out for you

Didn't see you until you shanghaied that microphone and started beating it against something. I thought it was a drive by... it only turned out to be partially as destructive.
