OCEANA was supposed to create a thread for me, but OCEANA has not!

I have only done it two ways:
1. Stick a rock up against them, let them spread and then cut the rock loose.
2. Find a loose clump, cut the connecting tissue and then superglue the loose polyps.
The way he does it should work just fine too. Zoanthids are hardy as hell. As long as you don't smush them, they usually come back after fragging.

Very. They are cheap too.

They come in accidently to the LFS with shipments of Blue Legs. SO... you just have to keep your eyes open when they get a new shipment. I got the 2 I have this way. 2 bucks each.

hey wax.
dont you have the coralife mini PC unit? the 18 watter. if you still have it let me know.
I bought one several months agp and it crapped out on me after only two days. One really considering that it was not used the first day. Anyhow it was only 37 bucks so I never even bothered to try and get if fixed or replaced. I did however take it apart and removed the reflector and the bulbs just in case I wanted to retro fit it some day.
well someday has yet to come and I dont suspect that it's coming any time soon. If you want some brand new bulbs to replace yours or just for spares let me know.
They are yours if ya want them. just pay to ship.

Yes I still have mine, but I think it will be a LONG time before I would need new bulbs, I only turn it on when I check the contents of my skimmer cup. I got rid of my macro-algae in the fuge and now I am just running a DSB with some rubble for my pods.
Thank you for thinking of me though!

Cool Beans!
EDIT: I got your picture. That is a Halloween Hermit Crab (Ciliopagurus strigatus). Some sources say reef safe. I wouldn't bet on it though.
BTW: Doctor Huggables has those in stock and on sale for $6.99 each right now.

Wow. How did you get rid of that? And does the coraline eventually overcome the green algae if your adding additives?
