Amazing pic. I accept. I also want to get a few frags from you now that you are back on the coral slinging grind. I redid my personal tank and need a few FarmerTy originals. Also, I am ashamed to say that i do not have an Oregon Tort growing in my care. I need to remedy that.
I actually just snipped a good size Oregon today so good timing. I will take pics of it next week and post so keep your eyes peeled for it. We’ll be doing the acro drop next week!

He's alive! Jk, glad to see you back. Quite honestly I've missed your antics and exceptional photos in my social media feed.
Thanks bud! I’m still up to my antics but my kids usually get most of it. :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:

I’ll get back on those photos though!

Did you have any luck with all the torch babies from July?
They get offended if you call them babies now. Teenage torch angst is the worst! Got 100+ teenage torches currently. Some have even started splitting heads.

Sheesh! I asked them to send you an angry torch weilding mob! Not a mob of torches! So hard to get good help these days!

Looking good!

Wow! That's incredible! Love the colors of all of them! Now that's what I'd call a euphyllia garden!

That's awesome. I believe at the time of the original posting, people commented that others they knew that had had this happen had difficulty keeping many of them alive.

I had some losses but most of them, maybe about 90% did just fine and continue to grow.

Hi Friends, hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season!

I’m finally getting around to redoing the display. I removed all corals and left a blue gig anemone in there. I redid the rockwork and will be replacing a lot of the 7 year old sand. Once everything settled after that, I’ll start adding corals back in. It’s exciting to get a restart on the display.
