Hexadron Posted August 30, 2013 Author Share Posted August 30, 2013 Boys, boys! Haha, it's all good. Well i'm sure the SPS will be taking in a lot of calcium and all, so I purchased Fauna Marin Ultra Easy DKH and CA. I haven't really seen anyone use those here, so this may be a good time to do a review down the road. I get a lot of inspiration from European tanks, so if someone isn't using balling, then they usually use that or another brand I can't get here I purchased the 1L bottles, so it should last me a good while.

Hexadron Posted August 30, 2013 Author Share Posted August 30, 2013 Your not going to tell us what you got before then are yah.... I want to! I'm just waiting for photos. They are supposed to send some to me. I have the photos from the website, but they are kind of small/low quality. If I don't get the photos from them today, I'll show you guys with the photos I have tonight. They are 6 Frags in all. Nothing super crazy rare or anything, but all of them are really perrrrty.

Deleted User 4 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Lol. Low quality pictures from a site.....doesn't sound so pleasing, it's either you got a really good deal on these or you're just trying to help out that owner. Link to comment
Hexadron Posted August 30, 2013 Author Share Posted August 30, 2013 No, no. I mean small images, like 500px wide. I want original RAW files damnitt! Haha, no this site is really great. The guy who runs it called me straight away to arrange shipping details, and even texted me to confirm everything early today. Really great guys, and they pack very well. I'll do up a review. Canada only though. Link to comment

TristanC Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Very very nice!!! Can't wait to see them in your tank. Link to comment
Deleted User 4 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 I like all of them except for the 3rd one. Link to comment
Hexadron Posted August 30, 2013 Author Share Posted August 30, 2013 Very very nice!!! Can't wait to see them in your tank. I'm so excited! Most of them are WYSIWYG, so there's some lookers there (I mean for Frags...) I wanted to stay in my color range of blue's purples and pinks, with a splash of aqua and green. I think I suceeded there I like all of them except for the 3rd one. Whaaa?!!! I know it's not a 'specialty' colored stick, but it's still SPS, and adds a bit of diversity. What don't you like about it? Just curious. Link to comment

Deleted User 4 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Ok, I'm sorry but I had to retract my vote for the pink streaked wrasse. Just because I saw this a mere minute ago. Swiss guard basslet, $130 So freaking bright this one.... do it!! do it!! http://s1332.photobucket.com/user/Illuiix/media/0830131-053_zps08bf64ed.jpg.html'> http://www.liveaquaria.com/diversden/itemdisplay.cfm?c=2733+3&ddid=200236&ref=4282&subref=AI&cmpid=E-_-TR-_-DDN-_-PRDCT Link to comment

I wanted to stay in my color range of blue's purples and pinks, with a splash of aqua and green. I think I succeeded there. You absolutely did. I'm a sucker for aqua colored corals, in fact one of my favorites is my aqua/pink ricordia. And for the record I love the stylo, I have an Ora purple stylo and I feel it's a great addition.

And for the record I love the stylo, I have an Ora purple stylo and I feel it's a great addition. Oh man, there were some pretty gorgeous aqua colored SPS on that site, but $100 for a frag was a little much... I always loved how fuzzy the stylo's look, and from what i've been reading they change color depending on different tanks/params. So one may be more pink, one more purple, while the other has more blue polyps than another. Can't wait to see how it goes in my tank. The photo I posted was just the frag, but here is the mother colony: Yours is awesome too. It was between this one of a purple one. The Blueish polyps on this one made me melt though Yeah....I keep forgetting..... Lolol. Heh, it's okay. Kind of a bummer because it's just that much harder for me to get nice things. Link to comment
Deleted User 4 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Ok that colony is much better looking than that frag picture from earlier. Link to comment
Hexadron Posted August 30, 2013 Author Share Posted August 30, 2013 Ok that colony is much better looking than that frag picture from earlier. Ya it didn't really do it justice, so I thought i would share. Ima make a believer out of yoo! Link to comment
TristanC Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Damn that colony is beautiful! My stylo has extremely long polyps, much more so than I see on others. Not really sure why but w/e it's healthy. Link to comment
Mstefa1 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Jordon, did you test out your tank with a single SPS frag yet? Link to comment
Deleted User 4 Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Jordon, did you test out your tank with a single SPS frag yet? Highly recommended. Don't want jordon to lose a batch of sps again like last time. Link to comment
Hexadron Posted August 31, 2013 Author Share Posted August 31, 2013 Jordon, did you test out your tank with a single SPS frag yet? I did I 'babysat' one of my friend's Green Acro's he fragged. I actually had it in my tank while I was on Vacation and a bit prior - about 3 weeks. Worked out fine. I didn't take any pics though, as I wasn't planning on keeping it. I gave it back to him last weekend. Not my style of coral i'm going for. It didn't lose color or die LOL Link to comment
Deleted User 4 Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 That's a good relief. Link to comment
