This one is for anybody that's had a tank crash.

My 20g was a challenge for me...mostly because of the location. The room the tank was in had temp swings up to 10 degrees in a day during the summers..I was able to get it under control for the most part, but still had some losses due to some bad swings. In spite of those issues, several colonies I kept never seemed phased by the inconsistent parameters, and I have a few of these frags left to give away.

Whammin watermelons
Candy Apple Pinks
Alpha Omegas
Bam Bams
Green and purple "no name" zoas

Requirements

-You've experienced a tank crash and decided to press on and rebuild or used the crash as an excuse to upgrade/start a new system
- You are willing to take the frag pack. These are the last corals in this tank, and I'd like to take it down ASAP.
- You give back to the DBTC within a month. Post a thread within 30 days of claiming or I will hound you! :p 2 of the zoas on the list are already in multiple frags...so this would take no more effort than posting your own DBTC for other members to enjoy.

Wow what a cool DBTC! I had a 10g crash when my heater cracked and fried almost every coral. Hardest loss was my cleaner shrimp who I had for 3 years. I rebuilt with the same rock and used a 24g aquapod

Clowninaround had to pass on the favia...it's available if anybody that's suffered a crash would like it.

Pickup this weekend would definitely be preferable, I'm going to have to break the tank down this weekend due to an upcoming vacation and would rather not go shoulder deep into my cube to place corals there temporarily :)

I have several frags in the sump of my 90 that are still available...feel free to PM me if you're interested.

I lost several zoas here and there, and had instances where 6 months of growth died back after temp swings. Unfortunately... a few days after posting this thread we had a warm sunny day and I left the heat on in the house. Temp swung again in that room and I lost the only fish in the tank. :(

The tank is completely broken down and I'm cooking the rock for a potential rebuild in the future with a new glass cage that will be plumbed into my main tank.

I'll take it. I had a tank crash a year ago if that counts.
Damn you Josh, a year ago?? How about mine a month ago!

Hey I had to pass on the coral. Haven't had a chance to make it up there and no chance in sight. I don't know if he still has them available but I wasn't able to take them.
