No,no, no, YOUR the man. All those frags I got were wicked cool. I am going to get some new pics soon. Did that Echinophyllia make it ok? It was the biggest piece I could break off.

Yeah, it made it fine. How fast does it normally grow?? That is one of the coolest corals I have seen in awhile. After watching it for some time lastnite, I started researching them. I noticed how yours had just kinda melted over the rock and that the mouth was off centered alittle. I noticed that most people were mounting there frags to SMALL rocks(about the same size of the frag) and growing them on the sandbed. The ones that were grown like this looked AWESOME. They just kinda spread out in a circle, similar somewhat to an efflo/soli. Where did you get it from??? It will definatley be a showpiece one day. Thanks a TON!!

That Mane3215 has all the high doolar pieces. He must be a lotto winner or something. I have watched that thread for a couple of months now, that is why I fragged the Echino. I want to get a few frags so I can trade for different colors. That is one super cool coral.

I got it from Ken Duenas. It doesn't grow slow but I wouldn't say it is a fast grower. Mine has doubled in size in 6 months but there was things that caused it to grow slower at times (Ivan, low calcium once, low alk once and stupid gobies trying to bury it in sand).

I have to thank scott also. He got me back on my feet. Hopefully sometime I can get back into the high end corals and trade. I hope the rock works out and I want to see how that tort turns out in a year. I bet that will be a sweet piece.

I would have never been able to get a tort if it wasn't for Ivan. When I have some more stuff grow out we will have to meet up again Drew. Those Dr Mac pieces are cool. For a wild colony one of the frags grows pretty fast too.

Scott,

Yea that greek one does. None of those coral had the same color in your tank as in mine. The blue one was actually blue in my tank and the green was slightly brighter but nothing like the photo on Dr. Mac. Hopefully the tort does well for both of us and we can pass it on just in case we have another hurricane :shock: I'm going to be looking for a few more interesting acros but don't want to over do it since I don't have a reactor nor do i have the space for one at the moment. I do want to trade for that denea and the Echinophyllia to see how they look in my tank. You just need to stop by the next time you are in pensacola so you can see my bare bottom tank since you are thinking about going that route next time. Heck I'd even think about going in on a few crazy frags eventually if you find some that you like and that are reasonable. I can't be throwing around $100 for a coral. I'm just happy that I have stuff back in my tank and growing. What I got is a great start.

Drew

Hey Eddie, does that monti with the green polyps looks like this:

(Man, you gotta get a camera so we can see all the stuff you have.)

That's her. It just hasn't got all the purple yet. As you can tell from the polyps, it's a smoker. If you want to see what all I've got, then you need to make a trip over her and check it out!! Plan on it this weekend.Is everything else doing good??? All the stuff you gave me lloks great!! I am wathcing that Echino like a hawk, can't wait till she takes off.

Has it not opened yet??

Yeah, it opened up then I saw that picture on Reef Central and thought that it looked like the same thing. I doubt that I can make it this weekend but next time I head your way expect a call from me.
