Sounds like you could easily fill up a marketplace table!

 

[Frank Cowherd]

Yes, I plan on bringing a selection of bags of many of the fish and cultures I have and put them on the table. We will see what happens.

 

[DiscusnAfricans]

Great! Glad to hear, just wasn't sure since there wasn't anything listed on the 'sign-up' thread. If you could just put a simple comment on that thread it'd be appreciated, you can paste a link to this page if you want. It'll just be good to have a central list of who will be selling at a table, even if there's nothing specific listed.

Frank can I have three bags of daphnia. Would the melantoaenia parve work in a tank of pencil fish and green laser cories. Are they jumpers as my planted tank is uncovered that may be an issue.

 

[Rinlor]

Frank can I get 10 SYNODONTIS PETRICOLA please if you have them available.

 

[Tangcollector]

Frank,
Can I please get a microworm culture. Thanks
Greg

 

[Andrewtfw]

Frank,
I'd like 3 bags of daphnia, please.
Thanks!

 

[Smsts9999]

Hello Frank, I am new here and was waiting for you to place your monthly meeting sale page to come up! This will be my first meeting and I would really like to purchase 3 female german blue rams if you have them. Could you please let me know if you can?
Thank you very much!
Nam

 

[bossanova]

I’ll take 1 bag of daphnia, thanks!

 

[Wobblebonk]

Can you put me down for 3 bags of daphnia and 1 vinegar eel culture? Or I can just buy them from the table, but just to make sure you bring enough if you have it available...

 

[Wet Sleeves]

Hey Frank, I was thinking about trying to start a colony of Daphnia but Im not sure how many to get?

 

[Frank Cowherd]

One is enough to start a 5-gallon tank and it would take a week to double or triple, two makes it more likely to be successful. And if you are starting something bigger, it is just math and time. In truth, you could start a 1 acre pond with a bag of daphnia, though it might take a while and assuming there are no fish in the pond eating the daphnia.
