ReeferBoo Posted May 13, 2012 Author Share Posted May 13, 2012 Holy ****!!! Just when I think I've seen the ultimate nano...along comes one like this Awesome ~!!!! Aww thank you for the kind words mini, that means a lot coming from someone with a beautiful set-up such as yours. Your thread convinces me to try Kessil LEDs on my next build Yay! King Boo! , what video game/tv show is this character from? **nvm, Google just told me Link to comment
Euphyllia Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 , what video game/tv show is this character from? **nvm, Google just told me MARIO KART WII! He's the best character to me, but I always race with Funky Kong on the Flame Runner because it's just better stat wise... Back on topic now... Are you planning to propagate the mushrooms like a little farm and sell them? They look might unusual. You could make some pretty good money selling single clones for like $20 a head...

OH MY GOD. Okay, go outside, go into the intermediate to highland jungles and look for a vining plant with tubby pitchers on it like this... http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/comm...mayon_luzon.jpg Nepenthes ventricosa lives in the 1000-2000 meter elevation range. Put it in 50/50 sphagnum moss/perlite and give it RO/DI water. It must never dry out, but if you keep it too wet, the roots will rot. Keep it moist at all times. Back on topic... Did not know you were located there! Maybe sell locally? Do they have LFS there? Link to comment
ReeferBoo Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 hahhahaha!! :lol: I've actually seen one or two of those when we climbed Mt. Mayon last February, half a day's hike to the safest area near the top and we barely had time to enjoy the view because a lightning storm started I've been selling Zoas locally, some of these yuma's babies too, but yumas are pretty cheap here ($2-5 ea) and the rarer ones are usually the slowest to sprout babies. Yes of course there are LFSs here, there's also a thriving reefing community Awesome tank... and pictures for that matter. Thank you Amjez, I am a fan of your tank's dimensions..shallow cubes FTW Link to comment

Yes of course there are LFSs here, there's also a thriving reefing community Wow! That's a beautiful mountain! I'd love to live there. I think my life plan is to go into a profession that I hate just to make tons of money and put all that I can into retirement funds. Then I'll retire at 50, move to Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam or somewhere thereabouts and get a collection license for Nepenthes. Then I would farm them in large shadehouses I would build with all that retirement money and sell them worldwide. Too off topic. Is there a limitation on the kinds of corals/zoas that you can find in the Philippines? Like are there the brand name ones like Darth Maul, Red Hornets, ect? Or do you just get whatever comes into the LFS? Link to comment

Actually, it's an active perfect cone-shaped volcano, you'll really love it there, they have pretty unique orchids too because they only grow on volcanic soil ...great plan! I want to retire at 40 or something, and start my own coral frag farm Well, we don't have ricordia floridas, maxi minis, and duncas (I'm sure there are a few more to be added to that list) here, and local gonioporas don't do well in captive systems. Local zoas are usually not sold using brand names, they're just named and priced by their color combinations..those who know the names just label them in their tanks. Some of the rarer zoas are imported from HK and Singapore Link to comment

metrokat Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 purdy feather dister. feeding it live phyto? Link to comment
ReeferBoo Posted May 20, 2012 Author Share Posted May 20, 2012 purdy feather dister. feeding it live phyto? Nope, I just run a sump/refugium with no skimmer and mechanical filtration, my mandarin and other filter feeders seem to love it Link to comment
ReeferBoo Posted May 20, 2012 Author Share Posted May 20, 2012 I have too much time on my hands Link to comment
metrokat Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I love the colors in your tank. The feather duster will need live phyto to survive. Link to comment
ReeferBoo Posted May 22, 2012 Author Share Posted May 22, 2012 Thank you I've had this yellow duster for nearly a year now, it only had remnants of its crown when I got it, and after a day or two in my tank it got rid of its old crown and started growing a new one. I have 4 more feather dusters as well as coco worms in my tank and all of them are thriving, there's even a hitchhiker who grew from the size of a small zoa polyp, to about an inch across. So I must be doing something right LOL...In any case, I can easily source phyto from a local reefer who has a steady culture....how often must I feed those? Link to comment
metrokat Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Let me get Alto in here, she knows everything. If you haven't fed live phyto and it's been alive for a year then I want in on your secret too Link to comment
