I thought it would be a good idea to start a check list for the people setting up frag tanks for the swap. Please add things you might think should be on the list and I will modify the first post accordingly. Then people can just print out the list.
So things to remember to bring with you…
FRAGS
Frag Tank
Lighting
Water
2 heaters
Power head
Extension cord
Power Strip
Plastic bags or something to put frags in
Thermometer
Extra water… for the water lost from selling frags
Rags
Eggcrate
Duct tape
Glue and extra frag plugs
Price list
Pen or Magic marker
plastic ties
LUNCH…at HOOOOTERS
Money to make change
Drain hose
Transfer cup …move water from tank to frag bag
Pointer… to show which frag they are looking at

Thanks everyone , just updated list![/quote]
looks perfect ::
and i gotta ask… duct tape? specific purpose, or its just great to have on hand? I saw that mythbusters episode, you can make anything with it… or at least hog tie the kids easily… Its on my list now
Well with all the wires that will be laying on the floor, I think that i will put some duct tape on the extension cord to keep it in one place so not to trip over it.
4 feet of tubing or hose to syphon water out of the tanks at the end of day.
i bought 6 spray bottles of spic and span antibacterial cleaner at the dollar store today for the clean up crew to clean and wipe down the tables after the swap. we can never have enought towels and rags.

I know this is pretty late but does anyone have spare frag bags I could buy off them at the swap? I might also need a spare heater for the spare water.
I’ve seen neon colored pointers, but not sure what exactly they are or where people got them. Anyone know?
Good call on the list John, looks pretty good now. One thing you certainly want to add is cash for change. Often at swaps everyone ends up with twenty dollar bills and runs out of tens and fives. If you’re trying to sell a $15 frag at the end of the day and the purchase has nothing to trade on only has a $20…
I have a lot of small ziplock bags if that’s what ur looking for. I’m not gonna heat the spare water. I figure I’ll be adding a little at a time and the display heater would keep up
School WIFI is password protected and your not very likely to pick up any good signals from inside the school, best option is someone offer to share their phone hotspot out for the day.
