I think my OC acan grows the fastest tho. the time it takes for a baby head to become a full head is just a matter of weeks. Probably b/c the OC acan was one of the only frags that was mounted from day 1. haha. I really need to mount the rest of these guys to pick up the growth rate.

I was glued to the refresh button the last hour to see how much it would finally go for. crazy indeed very crazy. I suppose the winner gets to at least show for the cash. I am at work right now and in the time it took for me to reply I watched a guy spend 20 times that on blackjack. lol

TB's acan after feeding frenzy. Notice the little polyp on the left. There are actually four babies that are already feeding. Very high growth rate!

i've got a 2.5 polyp frag in grow out phase right now. it should be a three polyp in a month or less....it's a frag off of the colony pictured above. check me out at frags.org as i've got some hillae and other rare coral frags for sale.

Freakiest thing happened. I decided to mount the pink acan lord that I got from Belowh20 last night.

 

So I did the usual, took frag out, placed super gel on rock, placed frag on rock and then put it back into the tank.

 

But I couldn't move the frag back in its original spot (shaded area on the far right side of tank) b/c the rock took up too much space. So I moved it to another spot. It was closer to the mh pendant, but i thought it would be safe since I pushed it into a cave a little.

 

But all of a sudden I noticed that it started to literally disintegrate in front of my eyes. Like flesh starting to melt away and oozing big time. So I quickly moved it back to the shaded area far away from MHs, and it slowly started to recover.

 

I wake up today, and it looks almost like new. I don't see any clear signs of lost flesh or anything. strange.
