how the tank buddy..... cool beans..lol....
thats your signature alright..oww ok enough about random stuff.
inform we of your tanks doing well. also i have a question about my acro. its a beatiful specimin i got for 40 bucks and i fraged it three times (only the tips) slower growth since my tank is not mature yet but still growth. my question of oppionion is ...... shoudl i frag the large branches and get nice smaller collonies for lots of profet (lfs will give like 10 per nice 3 inch peice) and be able to keep some as new collonies, but the problem is that its doing well and good grwth and color value and i dont want to ruin a good thing. i would realy like to propagate though.
so its some store credit and own collonies or enjoy it as a full dollonie and frag a litte later.
just want some oppinions. thx

I would frag it if it is growing fast.
The new version of the zoanthid gallery is online. Check it out.

if youre scared of it losing its color...or whatever it is...then maybe just try one branch to see how it reacts, and if it goes over well then chop it up, if not leave well enough alone :joy:
wax, i'm diggin the new gallery...although i wish those stupid numbers were along the bottom so i wouldnt have to scroll down just a TINY bit to see the whole picture...not a big deal, but when having to do it for plenty of pictures, i could do without...haha. ***) gotta love the zoanthids though, they look great...and is the first picture new zoos that you got, or just the accl of old ones?

also i have a question about zoos....so the one colony of zoos has yet to open...only a small portion, maybe 15% has actually opened...and the rest just stay closed for some reason.....I dont understand how i can have 6 other colonies or so that open perfect each day, then these that are so gosh darn stubborn....any ideas what it could be? I've moved em around to places where a different colony was, it just doesnt add up to me.

I have had two colonies that never opened at all. Just withered away. I have tried dipping, brushing, moving them around, all to no avail.
The ones in the blue bucket are some older ones, while I was acclimating them.
As far a scrolling down a little... you must have your resolution on your monitor set low, I have plenty of room! I might be changing it up again anyway. I'll see what I can do to make it more compact.
