Looking for Chaeto w Pods

extremetang · Mar 28, 2019

Anyone has any for sale or exchange for dry rocks or a frag of birds nest? Preferably in Franklin/Brentwood/Thompson station areas.

Let me look when I get home at how much is in the sumps. I have been moving more towards graciliria for my macro, but some of the tanks still have cheato. There should also be loads of pods in it, if not, I will bag it and dump some from my DIY pod houses. As for giving something for it, it is no biggie. I grow 10-20 gallons a month of macro with all my tanks, so a bit of cheato is no biggie since I am moving more towards another macro, as it my tangs love it.

Also, I will be in Franklin tomorrow night and could also set up a time to give it to ya, provided I have enough left.

Any chance I could pay you for some chaeto with pods as well? I would drive to wherever. I only need like a baseball size clump-super small refugium.

FYI-Emerald Bay has some chaeto most of the time. Last time I went there for some chaeto they had a fish in with it that didn't look like it was doing too well, so I passed.

If I have enough, sure. I am phasing it out of all but my AIOs since my tangs eat graciliria like mad pigs. Last I looked, I am wanting to say there was about a basketball size chunk in one of my 150s sump. But sometimes when it starts getting loaded, the wife feeds it to the goats lol. I cannot say anything about that though, as i do it too.

If it works out, great... if not, no problem either. Just PM me if you have enough!

I am also about to join MTRC and will be at the frag swap next week if you want to meet up then.

I have enough cheato. There was a basketball size chunk still left. I will split it up and can just bring to the swap or meet up this weekend with y'all. Just let me know what works.

Sorry I’m just now seeing this. Yes. I would like some. Thank you sir, I would love some pods chaeto, and your other macro if you’re willing to part. I have a piece of dry rocks or two, birds nest, purple pociopora if you would like some.

Do you plan to go the frag swap? If so I will be bringing a cooler along full of graciliria and what I have left of cheato. If not we can figure something else out to get it to ya. A small frag of the purple pociopora would be awesome too. be a nice contrast to the green in my office tank.
