I <3 u 2! Thanks for the generous NR-man offer!

 

Well, I cut the light cycle and bought a KICK ASS clean up crew from Reef Cleaners and now my algae is gone bye-bye!

 

 

I am still hesitant to "do eBay". I don't know what the coral market is like on ebay any more.

 

I have stuff like this--

 

 

and this---

 

Truly Limited Edition Reef Chicks!

 

And this!

 

And this!

 

 

I just don't know what the market on ebay is like. The acan pieces are too valuable to risk on ebay.

[animalmaster6]

That's alotta frags

 

How about becoming a N-R sponsor

 

 

How do you attach the acans?

How do you attach those rics?

Thanks.

It is a goodly amount--no doubt.

 

The sponsor question is a good one. I was a sponsor once long ago. It doesn't work out because I can't compete (nor do I want to) with the big shops. I buy my coral in smaller pieces and don't have a wholesale source.

 

Even if I were a sponsor, I couldn't sell in the Classifieds. I kind of limit myself with selling because of how I practice the hobby. I just like growing the stuff.

 

I attach the acans with super glue gel. They stick like crazy and then encrust.

 

The rics were attached already. I just sliced em and they split.

[animalmaster6]

Ah I see. It is fun to just watch them grow. That's why I'm setting up a 4o Breeder Frag Tank. Frag corals that are over grown in the display. Put them in the frag tank and watch them grow, then sell a few

 

 

 

Did you attach the rics with glue?

[mvite]

Did you attach the rics with glue?

 

Nope--They were naturally attached when I bought them.

[animalmaster6]

Oh didn't know that

[mvite]

Well I tried listing on ebay several times tonight and got fouled up. It's been so long since my last listing, I have to update many of my selling preferences. I got bumped out trying to list 3-4 items. I ended up giving up the auction and going with a frag pack as a buy it now listing. We'll see.

[animalmaster6]

What's your Ebay name?

[Needreefunds]

What's your Ebay name?

[animalmaster6]

Thanks Richie!

For those of you that have not dealt with Mvite in the past.

 

I used to tell him I am sending you money, send me coral please. Never really told him what to send, but I was ALWAYS happy with what I got. Best guy on NR to buy from. Period.

[Frag Factory]

Ta Da!

 

 

I don't mean to make this thread about selling coral. I wants it to be about growing coral!

 

But it's inevitable---when you grows da coral, you must have somewhere to sells the coral.

 

I need to set up my 'fuge. I will be looking for some low-cost, low-wattage light to grow my macro. Does anyone have any suggestions for a light over my 25 gallon tub?

I can vouch for that as well!!

Clamp on floodlight from home depot. Cheap as it gets. Try to get the flood lamp with the reflector in it and shoot for 6700K or lower.

Thank ya guys!

I learned it from you poopstreet!!

 

'tis true--I just cut 'em up and ignore them. Nature takes it from there.

 

I love this encrusting gorgonian!

 

 

And Weetie---Look at my free montipora growing!

 

[animalmaster6]

I like the encrusting gorg

[Weetabix7]

Yaaaay!!!

[Sword]

What sets encrusting gorgonians apart from Green Star Polyps? Looks the same to my untrained eye.

What sets encrusting gorgonians apart from Green Star Polyps? Looks the same to my untrained eye.

Very similar indeed, but I have some of each, so I offer this-

 

The lack of the typical GSP white "eye".

 

They also appear a bit more delicate, very wispy and fine.

 

While still growing from a mat, grow up in small tubes that look like a group of soft feather dusters.

 

Much slower growing than GSP - at least in my tanks.

 

HTH.
