A couple of hours have gone by now, since I put the BGM in my tank, it has puffed up some and is getting Happy....here's a shot to show the difference....

Yes!!! You got the BGM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Just add a frag to my tab....I'll wait the six months. :D

 

Tank looks awesome as always Mitch! Thanks for the heads up about the newbie, now I'm the one that's jealous! Once my 135 is operational, it'll be perfect time for me to get a lil chunk of that guy and your other new stuff.

I know there is very little difference in this little frag over the past few days, but I gotta show what I was told to watch...I think it's getting a second eye....the little bright green "daisy" looking area just below and right of the eye is what my guy said will be a second eye...probably within a couple of weeks...

 

This was just snapped a few minutes ago...the edges are flaring out nice too....

A friend came by tonight with a little swap item...I traded a couple little frags of some sweet acros for a nice little encrusted frag of a really neat new Chalice...Not any kind of bubblegum-watermelon-alien-swampgas-monster or anything...I don't think....But I will be interested to see what it grows and colors into....

Is that the BGM list? It may be a few months for it to bust out but I really will let people know when I frag it, if y'all want me to.....I know that JKUNZ is totally serious, so I truly consider the first frag sold to him...we have done a few transactions, and he makes it clear that he loves my "Happy Corals"....I would be happy to send some your way too...I don't have a lot of stuff fragged now, but I have a couple of things if you want to know what's ready I will send you a PM....Just let me know....

Oh, and speaking of the BGM...I fed it a mysis shrimp last night and today when I was looking at it (with my HIGH POWER magnifying glass) I am SURE it is getting a baby....It's that same spot, below and to the right of the eye that is there...see what y'all think....

Absolutely mnherper....you are formally on the list....as soon as this thing takes off a little I will see what kind of frag pack....I mean frag assortment we can get together (no frag packs allowed here on N-R) we can get together and make this thing happen...or, of course, if you just want the BGM that will be able to happen too.... :D:D:D grow....grow....grow.....

 

I only came back the way I did because I AM willing to "wait list" folks who are serious...with pleasure....but just want to make sure before I get a huge list together and find out people are tire kickers....

 

And....thanks a million for your kind words....

 

I'm still waiting to find out an ID on my new chalice too...it puffed up nicely after just it's first night in the tank...here;s yesterday's pic:

Mitch,

 

Terrific tank.

 

I have been staring at the BGM on the cover of Reef Hobbyist Magazine for the last few weeks. It is a stunning coral.

 

Could I be placed on the list for yours?

 

I would really appreciate it.

 

thanks

You're there...I got JKUNZ, MnHerper and Jasong...Now I just need the little freak to get busy growing!!! And, Hey, Jason, where are you located? It's not on your profile....

 

So anyway, Anybody know what that red chalice is called...other than Echinopora sp. I already know that part....

I want you to put me on the list brother I really do, but you know Cash rules everything around me. So I will drool from a distance. If you want I can join your Mantra though. Grow Grow Grow lol.

Love your tank as always Mitch
