So I got the last of the fragging done just now so all that are left are the;
Cranberry Tort-this is one that was never on a list we ordered (check first post you will see there were 3 like that)
Illicium
Riddler
Tokyo Tart
Also there is the Yuki
Since all but the Illicium where on frag plugs, I cut the acan from the frag plug, below any skeleton of course and glued them to round frag discs so as the grow the will be simple to frag.
Everything I fraggged yesterday was open today and I'll post pics later in the week-the wife is threatning divorce :whip: and with tomorrow being our anniversary :clap2: I better put the "reef stuff" away for a few days-
out:
Now on to the "honey do list"
C ya
Edit;
So I was just looking throught the initial post I did and I saw I made note of the "Rainbow Sun" as having 2 polyps. I'll look back and try to see what I was talking about but I never got the rainbow sun from Tysen. Here is the original list I made as I was placing things into the tank and noting polyup counts.
If you look in the upper left corner you will see I have rainbow sun and name under written down, its becuase those 2 where never written on any bag. Later from clcking on links I found what looked like name under construction.
If you look in the bottom right you see name under construction but you will also see (if you look hard) what was once a "?" since when I placed that in the tank there was no name so I marked it with a "?"
Hope that all makes sense, I'll try and see what I noted as 2 polyps but it's gonnatake some digging through the thread and time I dont have now.

Having read the other posts about grow outs, I'm really happy we got our stuff from tysen when we did. I'm also very happy to have gotten in with a bunch of honest and quality people. Thanks everyone!

I did not spend the time and look back through the thread to find out where I got mistaken by the rainbow sun, actually I forgot about it until I just logged in.
Anyway here are some pics as promised. That one acan is still looking terrible, and seems to slowly just disappearing. I have dipped it and it continues to look poor. I have NEVER had an acan just melt away, granted I have had a frag melt out but not one that had multiple polyps.
I have some "fish flex" that I use to dip zoas in when they are looking like they have some "fungal" issue going on, maybe I give that a shoot.
Sorry I wish I could pinpoint the issue, its strange as heck, all the others around it ar doing great.

Sounds good to me. Can you leave my box blank this time (my office freaked out about "live corals")? Ha!

You got it, I had the wife write that in hopes that UPS would be 'gentle' and respect the 'fragile' that was also written.
As of now all looks good for next Thursday ship date, I'll PM Zero and Beerman if they dont chime in over the next couple days regarding next week.
I hope everyones are doing well that they have received so far!

Holy cow, that's awesome!
Once these grow out I'm definitely going to start trading to build my collection, you don't see any of these up for sale/trade very often and people are definitely looking for them as you can see by the price they're selling for!
