bigredreefer Posted November 28, 2006 Author Share Posted November 28, 2006 Im assuming your talking about picture #5 Mahi. No I dont have any that look like those. If im correct about which picture..... they are a bright pink. RED Link to comment
mahi mahi boy Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Yes, you're correct (#5). I kinda thought that might be a pink instead of a red or maroon...... It was just wishful thinking on my part, a mirage. Link to comment
Six Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 u might want to let the new ones acclimate before fragging and shipping. if not, they usually dont ship well and end up dying. any pics yet? Link to comment

bigredreefer Posted December 2, 2006 Author Share Posted December 2, 2006 no shipping ?! ... ....well if you ever want to ship I have a frag of last count 36 polyps of what a few people refer to as reverse gorilla nipples zoas, bright orange center with darkred/maroon skirts and a little white line in between the two colors Its not so much that I don't want to ship, I'm fearful. I dont want to have coral die in shipping because I didnt know what I was doing. So its not that Im against it, just nervous about it because I have never done it. So if you wanted to fill me in on how .... than I think a trade could be in order. RED Link to comment
Tentacles Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 well shipping zoas is about the easiest living thing to ship, some people do it in a double bag with water and put it in a box with newspaper or peanuts or a styrofoam box....some people even ship zoas in wet newpaper and they do great, theyre pretty hardy stuff but you live in california? shippings could be $$$ since im in virginia, ill try to look up a quote Link to comment
bigredreefer Posted December 2, 2006 Author Share Posted December 2, 2006 Man my lfs is amazing right now!! I haven't seen anything really nice in months and was considering trying to find a new place to shop. (I tend to be a loyal customer, and they help me out with prices because Im in their store all the time) But the came through, in the last week I have bought 3 colonies and a piece that could sell as a "show piece" I have gotten: 1) green skrits, blue center 2) green skrits, blue center and a orange mouth 3) fire and ice 4) eagle eyes 5) a colony of bright red zoas with neon green mouths Probably ended up getting 500-600 polyps in just over a week!! Will be posting pictures of new zoas either today or tomorrow. (Still looking for trades!!) RED Link to comment
