ninjamyst Posted September 17, 2013 Author Share Posted September 17, 2013 Thanks! I am kicking myself for not buying more. My LFS had 50 of them, but I was in a hurry. Too bad they are 40 mins away or I will go back again this weekend. I also should stop adding stuff every weekend...this is too addicting. Link to comment

You should ask Mr. Salty for a referral discount / coupon. How's your peach zoa doing? Mine opened but I am not impressed. I am gonna hide it soon in the corner because it's kind of ugly...haha.

FlowerMama Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 it's like yours not pretty, unfortunately, if the amphipods want to eat that one at this point I don't care. Guess peach isn't peachy. I'm gonna try put it higher to see if the color changes to something better. Link to comment

Reef_Suds Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 The tank looks great!! That scape is killer! Link to comment
Sunar357 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Nice rics! Bookmarking that coral site as they are only a couple hours away and it looks like $20 for overnight. =) Link to comment
ninjamyst Posted September 18, 2013 Author Share Posted September 18, 2013 Was it you that bought all the orange ones? I got 2 orange, 2 pinkish, 2 green/yellow, and 1 multi-color. There are plenty of pinkish / light orange left. But it's hard to tell the true color once they are in my tank since Saltcritters post two pictures at the opposite end of hte spectrum. One in 10k and one under full actinic. I bought a zoa from them that looked great in the actinic picture but looks like crap in my tank. Nice rics! Bookmarking that coral site as they are only a couple hours away and it looks like $20 for overnight. =) Yup, $20 for overnight + $5 handling. They often have 30-50% off coupons. I didn't wait for coupons this time since last time I waited, all the orange rics were gone. Link to comment
FlowerMama Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Will be looking forward to seeing rics pics when you get 'em. My rics end up being most correct w/ color. And a week later I'm amazed how they've spread out. I had one though that since it was on the frag, as it started growing and becoming wavy it detached and floated to another part of the tank w/ the current , picked him up and moved him back because he couldn't stay where it fell. Hopefully it'll attach to something again. Link to comment
ninjamyst Posted September 19, 2013 Author Share Posted September 19, 2013 New rics arrived. The orange ones actually turned out yellow which is awesome. The pink ones are more orange. One of the pink one looks to be melting so crossing my fingers. My ric garden is filling up! I plan to move most of them to my tree rock to make a ricordea tree. I have other plans for my sandbed =P.

Illuiix Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 You might as well turn the whole tank into a ric garden!! Link to comment
ninjamyst Posted September 20, 2013 Author Share Posted September 20, 2013 You might as well turn the whole tank into a ric garden!! tempting...maybe one half of it =P Link to comment
Illuiix Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 tempting...maybe one half of it =P Are you sure? Because I could imagine your whole rock scape covered with florida rics everywhere and it will be legendary. Link to comment
gena Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Are you sure? Because I could imagine your whole rock scape covered with florida rics everywhere and it will be legendary. Or, you could just fill that whole top pedestal with ricordeas! Nice pick ups!!!! Link to comment

I've been happy w/ mine I just have too much flow in one area and their skirts are flying up. LOVE ALL THE RICS. Ric country. Link to comment
Red_Blenny Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Sweet garden. Your pics pushing me into removing my entire sandbed into a mega Ricordea farm. Link to comment
ninjamyst Posted September 21, 2013 Author Share Posted September 21, 2013 My frogspawns are dying. Everything was great last night. Came home from work today and the small toxic frogspawn has completely receded into the skeleton with just a tiny bit of flesh showing. My other frogspawn is open but I just saw a piece of its tentacle fall off. Torch is doing fine. Zoas are fine. All my rics are doing fine except for the one that looks like it is melting since yesterday. Can the dying ric causes my water to get out of whack? I quickly started to mix water for a 2 gallons change but I think my salt went bad. After 2 hours of mixing with a pump, I see white stuff on top. I am running my RODI now for another 2 gallons and opening new bag of salt. Link to comment
