The frag took a piece of mysis the last time I fed. I never knew SPS to take mysis whole, so I was impressed!

We grow em mean and hungry here at the dhaut coral ranch

Pavona is real nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What's next, an underground pavona / mini nem fighting ring?

Don't you mean the Moonlight Bunny Ranch ... oh wait ... I probably shouldn't have mentioned that ... whoops ... my bad ...



Already in the works ... who the heck told you?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!

It could be worse though.

we needed a financial backer, D. MJ has da monies.

Ohhhhhhh ... ok ... good thing you told me ... that sketchy looking car with all the tinted windows was about to show up at his door ... phewwwww!

Not quite yet. Still have to get my license (results don't come in until May or so) and repay a bit of my student loans.



That's just another day around here! That's also why I've got these (and more) ready around the house:

I consider myself old fashioned ... Gatling Guns FTW.

There's a few of these a block or two down the road from me:



The DOD has a Supply Center nearby, which would be great for when the zombies attack.

As long as she is by my side ... zombies don't stand a chance MINE ALL MINE!

I think I'd prefer to take my chances on my own. In the zombie moves, the vast majority of folks in a group always die. I'll be the lone wolf hiding away. Besides, everyone knows that zombies prefer a brain buffet.

Ok ... So now I am totally done with collecting SPS ... I don't know what to fill in the sandbed with ... I have some acans right now ... and a few chalices ... I kinda want to get a few of those Watermelon and Mummy Eye pieces ... they are soooooo cool!

D, you home friday? I'm off work and have a camera...

Why yes ... yes I am.

PM me your addy and when you want me to come over. Maybe we can hit up fishtown too.

oh, and I generally charge a frag or two for a full-on photo shoot

PM sent ... and oh yeah! Fishtown!!! We can definitely hit them up ... they are only 5-6 blocks up from me.

Frags ... not a problem

AR-15??

Yup. Mine's from Stag Arms.

New coral coming to me

Awesome! I had a chance to buy a coral just like that for $35.... I'm kind of kicking myself that I didn't.

Oregon tort? Wat is it?

Keep slappin' yourself lol.




Acropora Hoeksemai is the name.

deepwater?

To be perfectly honest with you ... I am not 100% sure ... it's not overly common from what I have seen ... I only know of one other person that has sold any frags of it (doesn't mean anything, just my observation).

It's pretty freakin' cool looking. The only thing I've seen color-wise that it close is the Oregon tort.

Some shots I took earlier with only the actinics on.

Very cool! I love the actinic only shots.

Looking good!


Bruce

So i'm still planning to be there tomorrow. You're giving me 5 colonies for the photo shoot as discussed, right? My going rate is $500/day so that makes sense.

Just saw this D ... I will be home all day ... as my new colony comes tomorrow ... they had to delay it one day because of the snow!!!

Cool...I'll call you tomorrow when I'm leaving - I'll try to get out of here around mid-morning/noonish.

Wow, haven't seen this one in a while. Looking really good.

Thank you very much Nanoty, and for stopping by the ol' thread. THe tank is doing really well ... I have been playing around with the setting on the vortechs in recent times ... I am trying them on short pulse ... anti-sync ... I am creating one heck of a wave!

So Big D (Dhaut) came over today to Casa de la DCG today to take some pictures!!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH DAN!!!

Can't wait to see how they turn out!
