[gill again68]

NOt sure yet. Will just have to see what he has. There is a guy fixing to move to Michigan and he is selling everything he has. I may want to go check him out first?

 

[jaxfishgirl]

Definitely do check him out. Could get some good deals.
meowzer, here is the picture of the algae. It's only on the new rocks

 

[gill again68]

Have you thought about taking the rock out and scrubbing it?

 

[spanko]

Diatoms. Will go away as the silicates from the rock, their food source, is used up. Get some more flow to that area. JMO

 

[jaxfishgirl]

Yes mike, I have thought of taking it out and scrubbing it. But like Spanko said it would go away once the silicates are used up. I will just siphon it out when I do a wc and change my phs around the get more flow there. hopefully it won't be too long, it is so ugly. thanks guys for the info

Check out my clam! I went back and was really a great visit. I got an orange monti as well as a green monti attached to some pulsing xenia that I was buying. For an added bonus I got some green eyed polyps as well on the same frag. Im going to cut that thing up. WOOOO HOOOOOO.

 

[jaxfishgirl]

omg, checking it out now.

So the LFS guy took me back to the owners tank in the back to show me a couple of corals. They were Blastos. I asked him how much, now they were probably about 10 heads on it, he said $175.00. I choked. He had another really nice coral that looked like a sun coral but you can keep this one in the light. He said it was $50.00 A head. Im going to get me some of those.

 

[meowzer]

sun corals have to be fed specifically ...so I would read about them before you buy them

 

[gill again68]

Its not a Sun Coral. It LOOKS like one though. I did read about them and your right, you have to feed each individual head. More than I need right now.

LOL...that's why I don't have one....

 

[jaxfishgirl]

it's probably a dendro. I have read that they stay open all the time, unlike the sun coral

 

[gill again68]

Well after doing some hard searching on the net, I have decided that your going to have to mail me a Blasto. Everything I am finding is around $100.00 or higher. You say you got yours for 20.00?

 

[jaxfishgirl]

Yeah, $20 for 2 heads and 2 baby heads. How about this, when it gets bigger and I can frag it I will send you and meowz one. You pay for shipping and it will be all yours

 

[gill again68]

thats what I am talking about! FRAG SWAP!

 

[jaxfishgirl]

Lol, all I have to do now is do research on shipping corals.

 

[gill again68]

Well it seems a bag of water and a box along with overnight shipping is what I get at the door.

Sorry to interrupt but, jax those corals look great. On the powerbrites can you turn the 10k off at night and leave the actinic on or is it all on one power? Thanks
