The Official Unofficial 2017 Secret Santa Nano-Reef Gift Exchange 🎅⛄🌲

Recommended Posts

As far as my wishlist goes...

 

I like booze

I'm also upgrading to a 17G tank so things that one might need when starting a tank from scratch is appreciated e.g. chemi-pure and other expendables (no fish food - I have too much as it is)

 

I'm really open to anything and everything - surprise me!

 

Edit:

Oh actually something I would like is a dosing/ato line holder

I'm in. I did this years ago with my first tank and it was fun! I love Secret Santa in any and all forms! I was actually going to sell my tank a few weeks ago to pay some legal bills, but couldn't bring myself to do it. 

 

Edit: Adding my wishlist.

 

1. I love ricordea, any but green.

2. Any cool reefing items you can't live without.

3. Fish/Ocean home decor for the fish room.

4. Sadly I'm a Chicago Bears fan, so anything Bears related.

 

OR

 

5. JUST SURPRISE ME!!

As long as I had to wait for a wish list from @DaveFason last year, I figure I've got at least until next year :lol:

 

I'll get something posted this weekend.

 

Wait, it's almost the weekend already?

I'm in.

 

wishlist- (any of the following, or whatever you can come up with, any little bit would be cool)

 

reefcleaners cleanup crew for a 10g or so tank

BRS dry rock

BRS 2-part or Kalkwasser

reef test kits

"micro" critters such as mini brittle stars, mini conch, unusual inverts

macroalgae

any LPS that grows well, or is interesting

frags in general, but I really like oddball or otherwise unpopular stuff (you know, stuff that isn't very colorful or worth much, but is handsome in its own way)

koralia nano or similar powerheads (even used works)

leftover DIY LED stuff

jerky!

naughty pictures

camping stuff

fishing stuff

planted aquarium stuff (cuttings, wood, supplements, etc)

freshwater botanicals (pods, leaves, wood, like the stuff from tannin aquatics)

Gun stuff (I'm an AK guy and love militaria and surplus)

It takes me a while I am a busy old man...............I am with teeny it will be this weekend ;) 

 

I am simple and love beer so.......................:lol: but will think of something.

Link to comment

I am in and have sent my PM.

 

Wishlist:

 

Reef Snow

Chemipure

Wooden airstones for a protein skimmer

Zooanthids, acans or mushrooms (or some of each if you find them cheap or have frags out the ying yang -- I don't have any blue, orange or red in my tank so that would be my color preference....or surprise me)

 

Probably  a stretch but I will put it down anyway if you find a really good deal it might be doable:   Hanna Phosphate checker (low range) or Jebao PP-4 powerhead

I’m in! Sounds fun!

 

 

I tried to give my SS 10 different options to make it easy, so here’s my wishlist in no particular order:

 

#1: Zoa Frag pack, though a singular designer zoa like a Rasta polyp would be awesome too

#2: Photosynthetic Gorgonian! Nano sized

#3: Unique softies for 8 gallon nano

#4: Anything useful and cool for a 1/2 or 3 gallon pico as well as an 8 gallon.

#5: Plants or seeds. I grow Bonsai, but would also like anything that produces edible fruit, a fancy orchid, or a carnivorous Plant would be nice. Especially nepenthes. Tropical plants for my future paludarium.

#6: Anything else a 17 y/o might like;) lol

#7: A stretch, but a griessingeri or flaming prawn goby. Some claim they can get them for like $25? Any cool super tiny goby, really.

#8: Planted tank items, like tools driftwood or plants. 

#9: Any must-have freshwater fish and inverts, like shrimp! Amano, RC, Etc.

#10: Rare or special MACRO ALGAE

 

 

Wow, now I feel like I sound needy! Lol

That's right... But don't worry about the authorities, they'll be totally thrown off my trail thanks to everything else on my list.

 

But; yeah, A Bone Saw... The more violent looking the better.

 

Image result for bone saw

 

Actually; there was a question as to whether or not to get a fine toothed one or a mid-evil jagged large toothed edition. I would probably opt for a finer toothed one cause I think it'd work better on Calcium Carbonate. Prob is that the teeth always get gummed up and it stops cutting.:angry: So I could go either way.
