ReeVo Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 That's a sexy lookin monti. Quote Link to comment
4x5 Posted December 24, 2013 Author Share Posted December 24, 2013 Great addition man! Though it looks like the blue portion might be a little bleached...am not so sure though! Since the tentacles aren't bleached as well....and normally when a coral is bleached, the tentacles/polyps will show some kind of bleaching as well....lol. I did frag it into smaller pieces to spread around so the whiter edges could be some marks from the cuts. I guess time will tell. Could totally go darker as well. Haha. Looking forward to finding out. 2 Quote Link to comment
4x5 Posted December 24, 2013 Author Share Posted December 24, 2013 That's a monti-beautiful coral ya got there. Mighty fine. Thanks. That's a sexy lookin monti. I really do like it, so much so that I'm pondering making the tall rock a monti encrusted tower. Quote Link to comment
ReeVo Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Do it! Do it! That would look amazing. That monti is worth having its tower. I wish I had my own tower. Quote Link to comment

4x5 Posted December 26, 2013 Author Share Posted December 26, 2013 A new polyp is opening on my zoas, thought that was pretty cool. Saw a Flame Hawkfish at the LFS, they aren't the most majestic fish but there is something I really love about them - haha. Wouldn't mind a Mystery Wrasse either. 1 Quote Link to comment
Lawnman Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 Were you born in Africa or just live there? Awesome on the new polyp man! Quote Link to comment
4x5 Posted December 26, 2013 Author Share Posted December 26, 2013 Were you born in Africa or just live there? Awesome on the new polyp man! Thanks. I was born here on the east coast of South Africa but living in Cape Town now. I traded a small town for the city (as one does) and unfortunately warm water filled with Angelfish and Anthias for cold water with kelp. Haha. 2 Quote Link to comment

Guillz Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Hey, I just came across your tank and was wondering if the glass thickness held up agains bowing or would you have gone thicker. Thanks, I really like the cleanliness of your set up and the blenny. Quote Link to comment
DannaM Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 I vote we have a yearly meeting at your house Incredible monti - love the blue Quote Link to comment

4x5 Posted December 29, 2013 Author Share Posted December 29, 2013 Hey, I just came across your tank and was wondering if the glass thickness held up agains bowing or would you have gone thicker. Thanks, I really like the cleanliness of your set up and the blenny. The glass is holding up fine. It's only 300mm tall (less than 12") so the 6mm glass is doing the job. And thanks. I vote we have a yearly meeting at your house Incredible monti - love the blue As long as everyone doesn't mind flying across the planet that's fine by me, haha. The monti is doing well, I have a feeling it's going to darken up a tad, the colour on a couple of the frags seems to be getting a little richer already. FTS anytime soon? Not really sure when, nothing has changed since the last one - the LFSs are bone dry, I'm hoping early Jan will bring more stuff. On the plus side that forces me to take it slow.
