Looking good TX!
Here's a couple more pics of some of my past superman frags.


BTW, the superman frag up for auction right now isn't the original (from Tubs). Almost none on auction ever is the original.

as long as you get one that looks the same (some have different coloring, ect) the only difference is where it came from. which could actualy make a HUGE difference in how much you can sell frags for

and candy cane: you need to be telling me where you are buying you corals. even if i pay 45 dollar shipping form the other side of the country id still get one heck of a deal.lol wholesale?

Why call it an original and not an original? Original for who? How do you know that it is?

you basicly can onlly tell, as long as they look the same, by taking someone's word. i got it from him, who bought it from her, who traded it from them, who got it from tubbs. ect. it isnt too reliable but everyone ive seen has seemed to be pretty reliable.

If its the same stuff why is there a distinction?

They're not the same. The original superman from Tubs is way more intense in coloring than any other red/blue monti I've ever seen. My pics aren't even close to capturing the true colors.

OK Viper what do I have to do to get a frag?
Satellite radio?
Pam anderson fan?
Xbox collector?
First born? He's 6 and a really great kid.

I own a fish place or two (you know how it is) in Colorado. I also have an extremely large website being built as we speak. Not to mention that I buy direct from divers in Fiji, the Hawaiian Islands, Indo, China, Red Sea, blah blah blah..I also am connected to nearly every dealer in the industry when it comes to drygoods. Skimmers, lights, pumps, etc. Like I said, it's not what you know, but who you know =)

If it was an add, I would have posted my store name or even website. Saltwaterfish.com does their selling on this site. Someone asked and I responded. Sorry to offend. That was not my intention at all.

Hah, a frag of the first born would be nice.

Got any nice corals to trade? I noticed you haven't named a cool coral yet.

It would be very-very-very nice. I am still a new comer to this hobby. I started 2 years ago and here I am a land-lover who wants to save the reefs. I have a plan. I am going to stock up my new 90 gallon and do a lot of trading. I think that this hobby should stop taking corals from the reefs in such great numbers. We need to start a conservation movement whereas we supply ourselves. Read my other thread: My other thread
To answer your questions. I have the basic stuff leathers, shrooms. Honestly I don't think I'd have anything you would want. But if you want pictures I can do that. How about that old fashion greenback coral. It ships without any stress and goes great next to a leather wallet coral. If there is any chance of a trade email me: ninjagator2000@yahoo.com.
My favorite...humm...I just got a really cool brain. Its a toss up...brain or frog spawn. I love that stuff. But lets be honest...there all cool!

OK your right. But I spend a lot of time night viewing. I love the way the brain looks at night.

I'd bet it's not the original superman unless it was being sold by a hobbyist. Some people do give pretty huge frags once in a while. I got my first piece of the superman in a trade a little over a year ago and it was 1", which was way bigger than I was expecting when I opened the box.
ninjamini, not really into leathers and shrooms, but if you get any rare corals in the future I'll probably still have frags of the superman I can trade. It's a pretty fast grower compared to other rarities.
