Hinecken Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 Hey Prop, where can I get a list of your inventory? I found out that I qualified for that tax rebate so I makin plans now... Also, my tank isn't exactly nano, do you have anything slightly larger than the average nano-sized items? Link to comment

Daemonfly Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 So, I heard this prop guy even hand-delivers the corals right to your doorstep, acclimates, mounts the frag, and then even takes your ugly sister, that no one likes, out for dinner. Hows that for service?! Link to comment
The Propagator Posted April 22, 2008 Author Share Posted April 22, 2008 So, I heard this prop guy even hand-delivers the corals right to your doorstep meets you some where close by, acclimates warns you not to drip acclimate, mounts the frag will sell you nice mounted frags, and then even takes your ugly sister, that no one likes, out for dinner will let you buy him dinner. Hows that for service?! Link to comment
shivametimbas Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 /\What did I miss? your tank pics i guess! Link to comment
Hossome Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Hey Prop! I am also from Ohio, little place called New Philadelphia. I am currently living in Chicago but will be moving back soon. I recently picked up the hobby and was worried about continuing when I return, but judging by your tank I guess I should have no problem finding good fish stores! Link to comment
nUgZ Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Who needs a LFS when you're close to The Propagator?? Link to comment
brshriver Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Hey prop. I'll need new bulbs on my 110 soon - 250W moguls - same as yours I think. What brand/temp are you running these days and how do they perform? Thanks! Link to comment
dtfleming Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 I think he's running 20K Ushio's. Link to comment
zhubbell Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I need some of those when you have some to frag, both for my display reef and my actinic pico! Link to comment
The Propagator Posted May 2, 2008 Author Share Posted May 2, 2008 brshriver, I am using 250 watt DE ( double ended ) 20k Ushios. Thanks Shiva' Thanks Nugz Hossome, you'll only find decent LFS in Indy, and around Columbus. The rest is a baron waste land my man. I buy all retail and pick out the freaky looking stuff growing amongst the crap polyps and such. Then pick them out and grow them to colonies. With the sps and lps.. I just know my tank and my lighting. I know what they will turn into under my lighting in my tank conditions versus most of the crappy lighting and conditions they are kept in and under at the LFS. I LOVE going to green houses. They always have brown coral with a hint of color and have stuff marked down because they think its dying when its just light starved I buy it up and 3-4 weeks later it doesn't even resemble the same coral. A few owners have seen pics of my stock I got from them and they were like "where did you get those?" I ought to sell them back to them and not say anything Nah.. thats not me. Link to comment
jiriki76 Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Hey Prop, I distinctly remember reading somewhere where you switched to Ushio 20k 250W and saw significant growth increase. Is that true? Are you getting both more growth and better colors? I think your old bulb was at 14k Phoenix or Hamilton. Link to comment
SPS20 Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 You really have some amazingly nice stuff in there Prop. I think when it's time for me to set up my 40BR (I will probably start setting up in the fall, and have it running and stocked by the end of winter) I am coming to you to buy some frags. I really think this hobby should be moving in the direction of hobbyist-farmed frags as opposed to the way it is done now. You sir, are an asset to the hobby. Link to comment
