Pship Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 I bought a sweet Darth Maul polyp from you that turned into five polyps, but now none of them will open and they're slowly melting away. Have you ever experienced that with Darth Mauls? It was such an awesome zoa. I am sorry to hear that man, I havent had any experience with that. So sadly I cannot give you any information on that but I can only conclude that you may want to frag off the good remaining polyps and maybe give them a dip? I may have some more at the Lansing swap if you would be interested? They grow super quick for me actually... Link to comment

I dipped the five polyps in Furan-2 a couple days ago ... maybe I'll give it another round this week. Link to comment
Bonsai Posted January 2, 2010 Author Share Posted January 2, 2010 I'm working on taking better top-down photos with an acrylic Photo Box ... but I'm not entirely happy with the results. Here goes nothing: Colony of my Kedd's Reds Morph Colony of Fire & Ice, with some Reverse Radioactive Dragon Eye Zoas A Frag from the above Fire & Ice Colony A Devils Armor frag - the color on this didn't come out well at all. It GLOWS in real life. Link to comment

burky_tc Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I *definitely* stole that idea from you It is ok I suppose. I will let it slide this time but next time I am expecting a free frag or something. Hopefully I can get some new pictures of my frag tank up soon. Been working on it quite a bit the last few days. I ended up changing it once again. Hopefully for good this time! Link to comment

Preuss Pets is an incredible place in Michigan, but they offer their coral online through their e-commerce branch, Crazy Ricks ( http://crazyricksonline.com ) I lived in Grand Rapids and loved driving to Lansing to stop by Preuss' they always had a great variety of fish, coral, and inverts.

Bonsai Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 I looked at the coral online.They have some nice stuff.Where you getting your frag disk Bonsai? The disks, like the one that the Grandis is attached to, is made by my LFS. They are flat on the bottom and look pretty natural when they've been in the tank a while. The frag plugs are from Boston Aqua Farms. Link to comment
