brad908 Posted November 25, 2013 Author Share Posted November 25, 2013 Aww man, you caught my bluff... They're that expensive?? I mean they don't look expensive at all lol. My setup including the scolys cost $1035, not including the fish lol. Screen printed, limited runs of usually 200-350. I used to be real into it from like 2004-2010 and made good money thru highschool and college by buying them retail for around $50 a pop, then reselling for $200-1500. The original Obama prints made me bank. Prints would sell out within 5 minutes, and the secondary market is crazy. I stopped once Obey blew up and Shepards imAges don't seem to be like they used to. Collected other artists as well Looking forward to tank shots. Apt looks great Brad. -D Thanks bruh. Link to comment

brad908 Posted November 26, 2013 Author Share Posted November 26, 2013 Thinking about a Tunze Comline Streamfilter 3163 or seeing if illuix will hook me up with his canister filter and knock off lily pipes. Thoughts? Link to comment
hey Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Thinking about a Tunze Comline Streamfilter 3163 or seeing if illuix will hook me up with his canister filter and knock off lily pipes. Thoughts? I know its a completely different type of filter than the 9002 but my experience with that was miserable enough to where i felt like even selling it second hand to someone would have been cruel and unusual so I tossed it in the trash and havn't missed it since. It felt cheap, looked cheap and never, ever worked right. In all honesty I will never purchase another tunze filtration item again. Lily pipes look better. Use it as a chemical media reactor and ya won't have to worry about it getting crudded up quickly aswell. Link to comment

brad908 Posted November 30, 2013 Author Share Posted November 30, 2013 Never had a lot of lps before. Can torches touch other torches and hammers touch hammers? With no ill impact... Link to comment
TheKleinReef Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 i know hammers can touch hammers. and torches can touch torches. but i think torch corals have a stronger sting which could irritate hammers. Link to comment

They will be far apart from eachother. Want to do a torch island, hammer island, and birdsnest/monti cap island Link to comment

Illuiix Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 That scoly will look great in the tank. Link to comment
hey Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 LPS tanks are basically full of the usual suspects but the color morphs are where they get exciting, i met someone the other day that collects torches I hadn't really though about it but you could do some really cool stuff with your separate island idea and a nice mix of different colored frogs and torches.
