daletu Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 It's hard to find a real yellow one vs a green one, especially in photos. I'd love to get a true yellow hammer one day too. Darwin, I forgot to ask you what kind of lighting do you use for your zoas? And how intense the light is? They still haven't opened fully today especially the Purpleberry Fantasy. Wish I had to never sell this hammer. I think the person I sold it to killed it Pink? That's really cool and thats huge too!! You should have frag it to many pieces and go to different homes to increase it's survival rate. 1 Quote Link to comment
buddythelion Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I run 4 bulb T5 ATI fixture on my frag tank. 3 Blue Plus and 1 Purple. They're about 15"-20" away from the light. Aiya, was hoping they open soon. That's the way to go! You got a nice tank to put those exotic stuff in the way. LOL!!!! BAD INFLUENCE!!!!!!! 2 Quote Link to comment

Lol, it's not bad influence! It's the way to enjoy life. Look at Mike from sexycorals.com, he's always drooling at his stuff lol. 1 Quote Link to comment
buddythelion Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 That reminds me, what's the most expensive collector's coral in your tank? I know you got some goodies. Most expensive piece that I bought in my tank right now is my plate which was like $260. A few of my other stuff like my Kryptonite chalice is worth more than the plate now, but that's because it's grown out. I always start with frags of high end stuff and then grow them out. Thank God for frags, makes things so much more affordable. LOL 2 Quote Link to comment

Aiya, was hoping they open soon. LOL!!!! BAD INFLUENCE!!!!!!! My light is probably too bright for them. I will cut down more % light and ramp it up slowly then. The others are opening maybe 80-90%, just the Purpleberry Fantasy stays almost flat. Yes! Really really bad influence! 1 Quote Link to comment
buddythelion Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 This torch isn't gold, but I love how it looks just like an anemone. I haven't run into this color variation yet. While not yellow, I'm always a big fan of the toxic splash looking hammers too! 1 Quote Link to comment

For my tank, it's the fake bleeding apple I just bought from fragjunky. $225. ahah. Wait til I get a master scoly, then that's a different story. 1 Quote Link to comment

brad908 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Can you ask him in person if he has any true yellow hammer or torch? I really want one now. Unfortunely I moved across the country a couple months ago, just talk to him thru my old reef club forum. Pink? That's really cool and thats huge too!! You should have frag it to many pieces and go to different homes to increase it's survival rate. That hammer looks pink in the photo but I bet you it's actually an orange hammer. It looked pretty much how it looks in that stock picture from PEA. 2 Quote Link to comment

Unfortunely I moved across the country a couple months ago, just talk to him thru my old reef club forum. It looked pretty much how it looks in that stock picture from PEA. So it was pink? It does look kinda orange in that photo. 1 Quote Link to comment
brad908 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 In between pink and orange. Think it was advertised as orange. 3 Quote Link to comment

I know the Hyper Phoenixs as a colony along with Bowers and ARC Poinsettias are also worth a ton. 2 Quote Link to comment

Haha... if you can mentioned someone is looking for a true yellow hammer / torch coral when you talk to him thru forum that will be great. He hasn't reply my email but probably because that yellow hammer is sold. 1 Quote Link to comment
Illuiix Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Bottom left good sir! Yeah that's the best looking plate out of that collection. 1 Quote Link to comment

Yeah, you're definitely right. But I think the question was what piece do I have was the most expensive as just one piece vs growing out. Like as a frag, which one is the most expensive. 2 Quote Link to comment

I love the Hyper Phoenix I got from Darwin I must say! It has a baby on the side and it's the first one that opened fully in my tank. That's the brightest coral in my tank right now! I can't wait for it to grow as a colony! 3 Quote Link to comment

I had a lot of fun when you let me choose the pieces for you. It was pretty hard only choosing 4 things, even though they were mine... LOL 3 Quote Link to comment
