Mr. Microscope Posted January 5, 2015 Author Share Posted January 5, 2015 Poop I totally forgot about today D'oh! No worries. Catch you at the next one. Link to comment
Mr. Microscope Posted January 5, 2015 Author Share Posted January 5, 2015 Sorry all, took me a few days to get everything mounted and photographed. Here's what I brought home from the meet-up! First of all, I traded with Klein. Here's my haul from that transaction. Beautiful frogspawn! Yay euphyllia! Second, a HUGE piece of Hurlock! It's a little beaten up from mounting. It fell off three times before I finally got it solidly in place. The base is purple, the polyps are neon green and very delicate looking, and the growth tips are blue (hard to see in the pic). I put it in the center of my tank and I think it's going to turn into quite a centerpiece. I can't wait to see how it looks in a few months. Also, I'm now in club Katropora! Gonna let this one settle in a little on my rack before mounting it to the display. The color is stellar! I can't imaging how awesome Kat's huge colony looked in person. I hope her's recovers. Finally, here's what I got from Reefwise. I've always wanted one of these and the whole family is really enjoying it. Skunk Cleaner Shrimp, "Shrimpy" named by my wife. Thanks again to everyone for coming! Happy New Year! Link to comment
kimberbee Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 All beautiful, Mr. Microscope!! Link to comment
GHill762 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 I believe they call than an octospawn.. gorgeous specimen! Link to comment
ninjamyst Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 I got a frag of that frogspawn too. Soooo pretty. Link to comment
TheKleinReef Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Glad to see everything is doing well so far Mr. m! That hurlock is a champ. It got beat up and still managed to grow like a weed in my tank. It should make a full recovery! Link to comment
Mr. Microscope Posted January 6, 2015 Author Share Posted January 6, 2015 All beautiful, Mr. Microscope!!Thank you Kim! I believe they call than an octospawn.. gorgeous specimen!hmm..I was thinking it looked a little octo-ish as well. Though, I was also thinking that perhaps it just hasn't inflated all the way yet. Klein? Octo or Frog? I got a frag of that frogspawn too. Soooo pretty.I really like the color. It's a little more yellow than my torch and makes a nice compliment. Glad to see everything is doing well so far Mr. m! That hurlock is a champ. It got beat up and still managed to grow like a weed in my tank. It should make a full recovery!Good to know. I really like the growth patter. Also, see above in bold please. Link to comment
TheKleinReef Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Klein? Octo or Frog? I dk, i bought it 3 years ago as a $19 average joe frogspawn. Link to comment
Halo_003 Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Sorry guys! I meant to come but we had a surprise birthday outing and I couldn't. Now back home in Florida though and out of the cold. Link to comment
TheKleinReef Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Mr. M. i just noticed that the green on the kat actually looks green under your lights/in your pic. not the pastel green that comes up in my pics. I could never get the adjustments right. (you can see where i fragged your piece in this pic ) https://flic.kr/p/qpYXgB'>https://flic.kr/p/qpYXgB'>kat 1/3/15 by https://www.flickr.com/people/113969537@N03/'>xMrKleinReef, on Flickr Link to comment
