yea. i really wanted the poto airbender and ultimate predator. but that is another $300. than we can get into some of the sexy corals pieces he's selling. so far i love the pieceoftheocean(poto) acans this guy name scott over in kissimmee. i'm meeting 2 people at the best buy to sell a few pieces and then off to his house for those. i find him on facebook.

That mushroom is awesome looking man !!! I wish tomorrow would hurry up already lol so we can see these Zoa's !!! I got a few new pieces earlier this evening from Living Reef myself.

[lilmatty5dimes]

Update time took a 145 mile trip today to Orlando for a few zoas. Picked up some emerald maul, candy apple reds, blue hornets, pink elephant, la lakers, cb rainbow infusion, and blue macaw. Not bad for $160. Almost bought a jawbreaker for $120 but was hoping a guy would get ahold of me when I was over there for his rodi unit. Pics will come tomorrow.

Whatcha ya get?

[lilmatty5dimes]

well, neglected the tank for a month and it definitely shows. all chalices have receded and a couple POTO(pieces of the ocean) acans receded as well. pretty upset about those but nothing i won't be able to get again. probably won't until i get my bigger tank. found a guy with a bubble magus 3.5cs skimmer for sale and going to trade him utters chaos, pink kraks, space monster, blue macaw, nuke green, and sunny d for it. think it'll be a great skimmer. finally got my tunze 3155 ato hooked up and working and also bought a brs 4 stage with an extra di rodi unit for $150 over in orlando. met the guy at living reef orlando and found an awesome store with some great sps selection and few nice zoas. going to probably start doing 3g water changes every 3-4 days until i get the tank looking how it should be. now for some new eye candy.

rodi unit and extra goodies.

solar circus, pink elephant, mauls, and rainbow

blue rhinos, la lakers, emerald mauls, emeralds on fire, OG capt america

salted agaves, legion of evil, solar circus, and chong bong

frag rack but showing the tunze 3155(love this)

Glad to see the Zoa's are loving the neglect man lol. It seems like the dirtier the water,the better they look. Seriously though,whenever you frag,let me know man. Your collection is down right killer !!!

Isn't that the true. Only time that gets bad is when algae grows onto the frag and kills it. I'm an addicted. Lol just traded a friend a mag 5 for electric Oompa Loompa, pink zippers, and classic rainbow raptors. Of course he bought these frags from me when he was starting out. Lol

[Reefkid88]

So true,that's why I love Zoa's lol. Dirty bastards !!! I love Pink Zipper's but can never find any at the shops,which is a bummer...

 

At least your rock is nice and purple lol.

[Nanofreak79]

Zoa hoarder! It's like crack yo.

let me know what you like and i'll frag some up. wish the tank was doing better cause Alex has some sick pieces for sale right now. i'm trading a guy some zoas for a skimmer so i'm getting the knife out today or tomorrow. weekend is going to be to crazy for me. lol

i've got 2 heads of zippers. don't mind cut one off in a week or so. i honestly wish i had an urchin in there to eat off all that coraline i just don't like it all that much. maaybe its case its all over the place and out of control. lol

Zoa hoarder! It's like crack yo.

LMAO. that's actually right. i've got about 8-10 more of the OZ(original zoas) i want to get them start getting some of the newer/rarer/expensive ones. guy over in orlando is getting some from a friend from CA and has/getting the fire in over here lately.

i wish i would have picked up crack instead sometimes. probably be about 50lbs less. and have more money. lol

[Nanofreak79]

You floridians get all the good shiz. I have some more goodies coming from LC next week!

Lol. Ready to move down? I'm willing to share the Florida love around when the time comes.

 

Reef kid I can frag a head off that zipper if you want.

[lilmatty5dimes]

Did a 3g water change siphoned up a ton of nasty crap from the tank. Grabbed all the dead plugs out of the tank and filled a cup and half. Good thing is trying a different powerhead. Golden torch, Duncan, and most of the zoas seem to be loving it. Going to mix up another 3g to change it again over the weekend. Operation get tank back to sps status is on.

[Nanofreak79]

Nice tank bro! Sticks, another addiction as well. Lol what orange filter are you using? I bought an orange filter for my camera and used it with my iPhone, it looked nothing like yours.

Thanks man. I know 5-6 people that all have high end sticks so getting them isn't a problem. The ones i bought up there where $20 a piece. I did a review on the ones I bought here. The good thing is it comes with 5 different orange filters so you can get the right one. I think the next thing for me is a cheapo clip on Marco lens off amazon. http://www.nano-reef.com/topic/349563-camera-phone-lens-to-filter-blues/?fromsearch=1

[Nanofreak79]

Thanks for the link! I bought a clip on macro and wide angle lense for my phone a week ago. I like it, though I haven't used it much. It's one of the better ones I've tried, two different clip style. Here's the one I got!

[Reefkid88]

I'll PM you matty.

 

And damn,that lens is pretty cool Freak,I may have to get one. It's a hell of a lot cheaper than the Ollo Clip or whatever it's called.
