Hey Mike,

In case you're not aware, there is a Central Illinois Reef Club (CIMA). There is a forum at http://www.reefcentral.com/vbulletin...30&forumid=110
We also have a website at http://cimaquarists.homestead.com/index.html

We meet once a month and the next meeting is Dec 7th in the Champaign area (Sydney). (check website for details)

Tim Ramsden of Springfield made a couple road trips over the summer to pick up Southdown for CIMA members. He bought it by
the truck load, but I don't know if he has any left. You might try posting in the CIMA forum.
