chrssprngs Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I just want to say that Wyoming white clownfish have a prime spot in the ugliest fish hall of fame list I carry in my head. As a scientist or biologist or genealogist or whatever, I am certain that the morphs are cool to create, like dogs and cats of mixed breed lineages. I'm just expressing my personal opinion that these poor fish look revolting. The Island of Doctor Moreau comes to mind. Quote Link to comment
Veng Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 So what you're telling me is I need to dream up a fancy name for kenya trees and call it a rare varient and charge 500$ a piece for 1" frags so I can retire? Quote Link to comment

zhuangcg Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Thanks for following. (My thread is rather long and it becomes a party at some point, use the index below to get you to the (mostly) serious stuff.) "Rather long" is a bit of an understatement, no? I've read shorter novels. You have a beautiful tank. Thanks for sharing it with us. Quote Link to comment
chrssprngs Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I've lived in South Florida since 05. Went to SB one time because my parents (in their 70s) wanted to check it out while visiting. Have no plans on going back. Probably lots of fun if you have lots of money. People who live North of Miami-Dade avoid the Miami area like the plague. Quote Link to comment

Veng, you either have a Kenya tree infestation or you need a brand architect for startups such as myself. You could potentially sell a rare Kenya tree varient for $25 a frag. Heck I have one. I've had my tree for over a year never dropped a baby. I'd say that is pretty rare. Nice tank, lovely lights. Thank you! Just say Jason Fox came over and peed in your tank water and people would go nuts for it. JF should pee in Zephs clam tanks, they might change colors. "Rather long" is a bit of an understatement, no? I've read shorter novels. You have a beautiful tank. Thanks for sharing it with us. Hey you. Thanks for visiting. The tank is always a work in progress, this weekend is a major frag swap here, I am cleaning out a lot of stuff from the tank and there will be a mother load of influx too. I bring frags home Sunday, dip and keep them in the tank for a day or two to get them settled before I glue them down. Quote Link to comment

I put a tree in my tank when I first started it about a year ago. After a few months I realized what it was and pulled it out. Then a few months later, I noticed it had regrown from nothing to about 1 1/2" long. So I scraped it off the rock and tossed it. A few months later it was back. The damn thing just won't ####ing die.

kgoldy Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Hey kat- forgot to answer you the other day about the pink monti cap etc... Not sure if there's anything else on my wishlist from your tank. I'm limited to browsing via cellphone while I'm down here, so comparing photos is too much right now. Haha. Your magic sauce birdnest is looking mighty pretty, btw. Definitely graduated from frag status to mini-colony over the last few months. Maybe we can actually ID it at the swap and see what it's real fancy name is. Quote Link to comment

I also have a branching montipora that looks a little bit like a superman, blue flesh red polyps. Blue clove polyps? Blue Ochtode macro? Quote Link to comment
Spirofucci Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 people grab the up like hotcakes because they're high-priced. Sanjay Joshi calls this collectoritis, and that it is pushing the hobby into a place that no one wants it to go. I don't want a tank with 150 different 1/2" frags of SPS and be like "oooh, this one is an 'OMG berry blitzy acro' and cost $150 an inch, this one is 'clown puke in a can' milli, and was $400" etc. I'd be happy with a friggin ginormous monti cap, a birdsnest the size of my head, and a nice tabling acro. DONE. I'd have to save up for it, but I'd pay $400 for a frag of Clown Puke In a Can Millie. Quote Link to comment

And pretty much everything else but the blue cloves. Cloves are weird in my tank... they spread over zoas (only my nice ones) and disappear after they're done killing their pretty neighbors.
