metrokat Posted October 21, 2015 Author Share Posted October 21, 2015 Good morning y'all. Starbucks just I formed me that I've been demoted to green level after being gold level for a year. Seems they want me to have more caffeine than I have been imbibing. Now if only they offered a hot toddy. Sounds like a party I'll be wearing my cowboy boots. That's good. I'm looking forward to a new accent... I listened to the recording with StevieT last night on my drive home. You defiantly have a tone... not at all what I was expecting Where is the recording g of the cast with dave? Don't be hatin' my tone. 1 Quote Link to comment
metrokat Posted October 22, 2015 Author Share Posted October 22, 2015 Woo hoo. Please join me for a live podcast tonight 9pm EST with Jedi MasterBen. Call in with a Fishy story. http://tobtr.com/s/8009219 3 Quote Link to comment
BluCrab Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Too bad it's getting cooler because nothing is hotter than a lady in a Sun dress and cowboy boots Well then again a short sun dress and a sexy pair of heels might top that here in Houston. The cowboy boots is more of a Dallas /Austin thing. BTW Kat, what's the date you're coming to Houston next year? Our ReefCurrents 2016 is being held on March 19th. Quote Link to comment
metrokat Posted October 22, 2015 Author Share Posted October 22, 2015 Houston is the first week of March. Be great to meet some of y'all for dinner. 1 Quote Link to comment
Boggers Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I am now a proud owner of a BABY basket star as well from Russ....Long story short my first shipment melted overnight and he sent out replacement. Got today and I would have missed it if I wasn't looking for one. How is TX Kat? Quote Link to comment
metrokat Posted October 22, 2015 Author Share Posted October 22, 2015 Awww!!! I don't know how mine is still alive, it's been 2+ weeks. But i suppose they eat micro foods from the water that they might filter with their arms because the little bitty has not moved from it's spot at all. I see an arm hanging in the air before it curls it back in but that is it. TX is tough, they are expecting flash floods now through the weekend so that makes the trade show traffic extremely poor. Business is tough. Quote Link to comment

rick12 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 When it was yellow love those green Grand Palys Kat.Mine are the cinnamon colour, with the exception of one. I cut a frag off the cinnamon cluster and placed it in another tank and its growing green like yours. Quote Link to comment
metrokat Posted October 22, 2015 Author Share Posted October 22, 2015 That's interesting, I thought it was a morph difference but it could be spectrum related. Quote Link to comment
rick12 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I agree with you, Find it odd. I started with one single play many years ago. Fingers crossed it stays green Quote Link to comment

Mirya Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 That's interesting, I thought it was a morph difference but it could be spectrum related. It very much is. I bought my Grandis Palys green -- they had been grown in a greenhouse (Tidal Gardens). Under a Maxspect Razor they turned brown. Under a NanoBox they turned back to green. 2 Quote Link to comment
righttirefire Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 I'll have to listen to it after the live show... ask ben about his bristleworms and usps Quote Link to comment

Under a Maxspect Razor they turned brown. Under a NanoBox they turned back to green. i will move the colony to see what happens. Both tanks run t5 bulbs that are identical, the tank with the green grand paly also has two Halo par 38 bulbs. ( hope it's ok to post this in your thread Kat) 1 Quote Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 I've found it depends on light more than spectrum. Kat's colony in particular is needing around 250 PAR in my system to keep its color. Quote Link to comment

metrokat Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 Well that was a fun podcast!!! I think Benny is right about the PAR, I'll have to find pictures of when I just moved to my current tank and didn't have enough light. The colony started turning brown indeed. 1 Quote Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 they turn brown? Low par? Yep. I also have two other frags of P. grandis. One was a very light color, has some tan and light green but mostly white, and another frag has tiny polyps. The one that is brown has been brown for over a year and a half, maybe longer. got them from Aquascapers (now Coral Morphologic), they were a nice color back then and I kept them in low light and they browned out and have not recovered. kat's colony browned out when I kept them in a holding tank with much less light than I had them in before, and within a couple of weeks of getting them back in high light they regained their color very quickly. I found the Aquascapers palys when I got them. October 29th of 2013, so almost exactly two years. Still has only one polyp and one tiny baby, the large polyp is tinier than a dime and is all still turd brown. 2 Quote Link to comment
