.Newman. Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 thanks! Dali is the man. Those green trumpets are electric. probably really stands out in your tank! Link to comment
kel73 Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Your tank is amaazing! Infact, the best! Link to comment
.Newman. Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 haha, idk about the best. imo the best was El Fab's picotope. i dont think anyone can make a pico better than that thing Link to comment
kel73 Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I just looked at his, pretty awesome. I like your layout though . I am curious what that red and green pillowy coral on the right hand side with the zoas around it is called. I want one for my tank for sure. Link to comment
.Newman. Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 That's my Blastomussa welsi coral. Blastomussa merletti (spelling?) are amazing too. El Fab had the merletti, and I personally like those more. Link to comment
gritchie4 Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 How are your tubbs blue zoas doing from pj86? Mine started as six polyps and are popping off new polyps like crazy. I have like 11 or 12 now. Link to comment
.Newman. Posted January 12, 2012 Author Share Posted January 12, 2012 they are doing ok. i cant notice any growth yet but i'm not really looking closely at them or anything. as long as they are alive, open and happy, that's what matters. not like there is any room for them to spread anyway haha!

metrokat Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Newman, I now have 2 white anemone porcelain crabs. The first one is still mauling the duncan. The second like to hang on the rock. Both are handicapped, the first still hasn't grown her second arm and the new one is missing one pincher. Link to comment
.Newman. Posted January 13, 2012 Author Share Posted January 13, 2012 ok well keep feeding them, and in time they will grow back. your corals should have been used to the crab by now...the one that is not on a coral, will eventually find one to host. Link to comment
metrokat Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Duncan: Lola mauling the duncan: At night, every night (notice dingbat in the right corner): Link to comment
.Newman. Posted January 19, 2012 Author Share Posted January 19, 2012 i see. well it really likes your coral. also it looks like it feeds off the coral which is not unusual. you are spot feeding the crab right? from the looks of it, the coral is simply too small to take the hosting well. kind of what happens when a tiny anemone gets taken over by clowns. its up to you to decide what to do. if the duncan looks decent and alive - feeds regularly- then you can just leave them. if its adversely affected and is going to die, then move it way from that location/get the crab off it too. for example place it on a frag rack so the crab cannot get to it. just some ideas.

gritchie4 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Agree with Newman. If the duncan stays healthy then leave it. If not move it and evict the crab. Lola will find another spot to hang out. My spends most of the time in my gsp. Link to comment
.Newman.

You able to ship any of those ? I'd be interested in the birdsnest. Link to comment
lljdma06 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I'd be interested in the paly if you can ship. Link to comment
.Newman. Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 i am shipping. shipping is $15 including a heatpack and insulation, so its worth it to get more than one frag. frags will be priced cheaply to compensate for shipping costs. for example the bigger branched green bird frag will be $10 while the small green bird frag will be $4.00 The implosion paly for comparison will be about $4.00 (pics should show that is very green and imo worth the $4.00) anyway, pics coming soon Link to comment

It's the 8g with the halide? Link to comment
.Newman. Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 yes of course. they live in the corners of my tank and get by with low light. they should be fine under a MH. the montis did come from my MH-lit 10 gal nano. Link to comment
ccapasso Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Can you pm me price for the 2x birds nest and zoas shipped to 44145 ? Link to comment
lljdma06 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Likewise, the price of the two montis & the paly to 33186. Link to comment
.Newman. Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 wouldn't you guys want to see the corals' pics first before buying haha? ill post up pics sometime this week. I will keep you two in mind for what you want. also it sounds like both of you want 2x of the same coral?? are you sure about that? Link to comment

Have you seen my tanks? It's stretches of the same stuff. Lololol Link to comment
.Newman. Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 ok lol, as long as you are sure you want both monti frags. same species - i warned you. Link to comment
lljdma06 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 ok lol, as long as you are sure you want both monti frags. same species - i warned you. Ok, you think I could handle the rainbow, the monti, & the paly?? Might as well make this interesting. Link to comment
.Newman. Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 yes all of them will work. the pocillopora likes low-medium light from what i see. it should be fine since its not picky about lighting. Link to comment
