 Topic: Newb Q on Upcoming Frag Fest
Posted: May 10 2010 at 12:17pm |
I am a new kid on the block and I have what will likely seem to be a stupid question, but here goes:
The Frag Fest to be held on June 3rd I assume this is a great way to get corals at bargain prices, is this the general experience?
I ask as I've never attended one and I have a pretty nude tank with quite a bit of room to add corals and am limited on spouse allowing budget.
I do plan on having ReVive on hand to dip the corals before they go into the tank.

I think that's right. At least it was at this last Frag Fest. I got a little out of control and dropped a little too much $$$, but I got some sweet stuff! A BIG piece of blue milli that has grown really well and could now almost be called a small colony and some Ultra Acans in the auction.
Also, people that had donated to the Fest were allowed to go into the back a few minutes before everyone else, which was a HUGE advantage considering how quickly things are picked over.

Yes, the frag fest is a great way to get coral frags at bargain prices. Most of our frags will be $10 each and members get 50% off.
We are hoping to have some really nice stuff this time.

partsguy-
That is great that you are looking to donate. If you don't mind, please post pics here a few days before the fraf fest. Then just bring any donations you may have with you.
We certainly appreciate it!

If you become a WMAS Member and then go to the Fragfest and buy just 5 frags total, you will have saved enough $$$ to pay for your entire Membership 
If you purchase more than 5 frags... well, then you got a "free" Membership PLUS the 50% savings on coral frags #6 and up! 
In addition to getting massive savings at the Fragfest, your WMAS Membership entitles you to:
- Extra discounts at some of our fine LFS' and home-based stores 
- And you'll have access to the "Paid Members Only" Forum on this Message Board 
- And you get to attend our Annual WMAS MEMBERS ONLY BBQ  last year we threw pies at Adam  and there is always amazing food and FREE raffles for our Members and their families!!!
Point of this post... BECOME A WMAS MEMBER.
Absolute best $26 you will ever spend in this hobby!!!
