*Ironman, Purple Urkle, Zoas, Favias...*!!!

Well, our daughter has finally been born, and that means I have so much free time now that I'm going to frag and sell some coral. :squigglemouth: Well, it's been a few weeks now, so I can at least form coherent (albeit sleep deprived) thoughts and take some pictures now.

In celebration of the birth of our daughter Elise (aka to help out a little while wife is on maternity leave), I'm going to be pricing a lot of this lower than usual. Lots of nice corals ready to go. Guarantee is pretty standard stuff (live arrival, in unlikely event of doa-pictures, etc, etc). Shipping is not included unless otherwise stated. Check my iTrader feedback and buy with confidence.

First up

I have two frags of the Purple Urkle cut beginning of this week. I would like to give them another week or so to finish healing before shipping. One frag has 1 larger eye, 1 medium, and 3 smaller eyes, and the other has two medium eyes and another md/lg eye coloring up near the rim. Both frags are doing great. Pic was taken right after fragging.

Lineage is directly from Hugo (snipersps)

My MC-a couple shots from different times.

Both frags PENDING.

Next up

Two frags of my MN Ironman Chalice! These are the only two frags I have cut up, and I won't be fragging again for a while as I want to let the mother colony be for a while. Both have been fragged for over a month. One of them got stung by a favia shortly after fragging, which is why you can see some skeleton along the rim and the colors are a little wonky, but that was weeks ago and it is fully healed, eating, and doing great.

Frag

Asking $100.


Danny's Tropical Sunset Acan--This is a very special, unique acan. I have two single polyp frags cut, healed, and ready to go. Under lower light (ie PC), the acan tends more towards yellow-orange polyps, but under moderate/higher light, the polyps get a cool pattern with blue mouths, a yellow ring, followed by a purple then blue outer ring with random splashy stripes of yellow-orange along the fringe, as seen in the second pic. The polyps for sale have been on the colony in lower light.

RSC Strawberry Dreams WM Chalice--This is a blazin' bubblegum pink chalice; probably the brightest pink in my collection. I just have one frag cut right now, approximately 1/2" with two nice eyes. Frag is cut and healed and ready to go.

LE Mia's Pot of Gold Favia--Just the one frag cut right now, but I can make more. Frag is WYSIWYG. Cut, healed, ready to go. This frag was grown out from 2 polyps and is now 7 polyps + some new baby polyps forming.

Ron Burgundy WM Chalice--Really nice WM chalice. This one has been coloring up more and more as it grows. Just cut these frags at the beginning of the week, so they'll need a little while longer to heal up.

This here is something special. Got this in a trade a while back and I think it is a really amazing monti. This is a plating Monti palawenensis, which is cool already, but what really makes this one special is the very unique colors. The main color of the body is a pinkish gold metallic color, and the growth rim gets a nice pink color to it, and to top it off it has dark purple polyps! I really like this one! I have one frag cut and ready to go right now.

Tricolor Palawenensis

ReefTech Starburst Cap--Some of you may remember when this one first popped up on the forum. Lots of people went gaga over this, and for good reason. Really amazing cap. Bright orange with contrasting big yellow polyps (bigger than most monti cap polyps); you don't see that on a monti often. I haven't seen much of this one since, but it's done really well for me and I just fragged mine.

Good stuff! I have the ironman and its awesome. Eats like a pig and is already growing. Nice sized frag too.
 
That orange acan/Ironman Chalice is sick!

Free bump for a good guy that I've gotten quite a bunch of frags from!
