It's just a tank

[Goaway]

Is that the micro?



That’s crazy! That gold is beautiful.

The micro is in the front. 3 heads left. it is showing some promise on being happy again.
The gold is no micro colony. 1 head is HUGE. I need to put measure the crowns.
I am down to 35 utter chaos polyps. If the others don't die. I have been dipping in iodine for 15 minutes per day. They are clinging on to dear life. We'll see how many survive the fox onslaught.

Edit: for the gold hammer polyp extension is 2 and a half inches.
the micro colony per head is around 1 inch extended.

The POTO highlighter hammer is 3 and a half. No sign of splitting, I hope not a wall hammer.

This guy has some nice elegance colonies and hammers and torches as well.
I am a sucker for hammers. I have to go see them! But, I keep away from walled colonies.

Hey! Stay away from those hammers! I have dibs on the hammers, I'm just not ready for corals yet!
Just kidding, of course, but I have definite plans to include hammers in my reef, and AO is a likely spot for me to get them. I really like some of the color options Charlie has, especially since I can view them in person before purchase.

If they are branching... OMG I wont know what to do!

They are as amazing as torches. I don't care what anyone says. They can extend very nicely, flow just as nice and be just as beautiful!

Does he have indo’s?

I like hammers better than torches, which is nice for the price when it is contrary to popular opinion.

From the pictures I saw, all of them looked indo.

Hammers can get very expensive though. Not on the same level of torches.

For the hammers in the picture she posted? Of course!!

I really think it all depends on the coloration, health, and size of the torch/hammer that is the deciding factor for me. If a hammer has 3x heads and is super vibrant and healthy, I would much rather get that over a not so good looking single headed dragon soul.

(Of course I only have 1 micro hammer and 1 torch, so who am I to talk, lol)

Foxface has gone to her new home. I hope she is well. I did make a nice buy from AO while I was there. Didn't snag no pics. @Soren was all over the place with a real camera. My son was bouncing around and his dad was keeping watch.

I got a nice little rock with a red shroom, a bounce mushroom and predator zoas. At least I was told that is what they are. The bounce is to theright of the red shroom. Both are under the size of a dime. I am very happy with the store. But man, he was busy today! No actual prices were on the tanks. I didn't want to have to ask 100x "what does this cost?" he has better prices than the live sales. Only issue is, we spent more on gas than we would on shipping. BUT the price tags are probably worth it.

 

[shadow_k]

Time to remove the bubble cup from the zoas !

I did that. I am really hoping they make a recovery. Most of what are revealed have no skirts.

they will grow back...

 

[Goaway]

they will grow back...

a lot of them were overwhelemed by infection. Some stubs left. I have dipped them in iodine and peroxide baths once at 15 minutes per dip, for 5 days now. It looks to have stopped. Some I think are just done. Further pics tomorrow. She even ate a few skirts of my magician palys.

I haven't seen any updates from soren, hope they are both okay.

Ummm the more I read about your foxface,the more I'm put off on getting it as my last fish or maybe 2nd last as now wanting another wrasse lol and my latest zoas are magician zoas lol but I've already got a bi colour blennie,coral beauty and copperband which all 3 have been known to have a little nibble at corals lol so I guess I've already thrown the dice ha ha
We shall see in next week or so.and if fish becomes problem can always rehome ( maybe rehome these 2 cleaner shrimp as becoming a pain feeding my lps with a bottle over ,especially on rocks pffft) they look cool and possibly have a job with the other fish but are such a pain stealing food even though give them lots first ha ha

I love skunk shrimp. But don't miss how they steal food from corals. I keep thinking about my bta. He would make for an easy target for them.

 

[Jubei2006]

I wont keep shrimp because they steal food from LPS and anemones and irritate the crap out of them while doing it. Never had a shrimp do anything other than be pretty. Served no benefit in the tanks I have kept.

I used to have a scarlet skunk, but he died for no reason.

If I do ever get any more shrimp, they will probably be peppermint or sexy shrimp.

 

[Goaway]

I would avoid peppermints. They are known for eating coral flesh. I read too many reports of it happening.
