Size is roughly 7"h x 4"w - for trade. Located in Palm Beach County. Not really wanting to ship, south Florida area is best. Willing to deliver.. I also have more then this one and more soon to be fragged.

Just fragged a bunch more today. They recover very quick! When I know that they are doing fine, ill have them up for trade. I also have another 3"x6" frag that's up for trade now. I will post pics later.

How's yours doing anyhow?

Closed up for a while and looked nasty but i remembered what you said and just left it. After about a week it shed the nasty stuff off and has been opening up again like the first day :) really awesome piece. Thanks again.

These like tons of flow and light. They will even accept foods no problem. Mine rarely close up anymore, even after handling them! They stay open even during the dark period now.

I have more that need a home! I currently have 8 smalls 3-4" in height, and 3 large colony sized frags 6-7"h x 3-5" w, take them all for $60.. I need more room in my tanks. I'm constantly cutting it to keep it from taking over.

When I say this grows like a weed, I really mean it. This is only a weeks worth of growth after being cut.. I left the cuttings sitting on the bed of my frag tank and this is what happened.. O_o

Ship!

 

Even overnight would cause them major stress. I've had them shed from their skeleton with just a hours drive with no water flow.

 

are these non photosythetic?

Throw a clipping in a small flat rate box and send it to me!

 

I honestly don't think it would make it.

Sucks, I had no idea these were that sensitive. I've been trying to find these locally for a while.

In a happy stable tank, they are nuke proof and will out grow most everything else. They like way more turbulent flow then people give them. You see how happy mine is ^ It's getting on invasive status. The mother will grow to the surface if I'd let it. When it comes to being in a bag or container with no flow, they get upset quick. I can't say this to be fact, but I've been feeding Reef-Roids to my tank, possible it's fueling the overdrive growth. Could also be the LEDs, hard to say.

I never kept gorgs before but now that I'm culturing live foods I want stuff that will benefit from it.

I've got a few gorgs at home and they're all pretty much impervious to anything. Even my sweet NPS one.
