Impulse purchase. I wanted some blastos from la. That isn't happening. BTW they are a unique color and if you have a good standing with Diver's den, 5 heads for around 25 per polyp. 130, 10 box charge, 30 shipping, maybe add on some sales tax.. So I got this instead,
I blotted out what was not interesting to me. pablo said he would send more pictures before shipping. I can respect that. I am used to people taking a day off.

These blasto are something else. I never seen anything like them. Someone else may have. I have not.

So, my husband watched something "best of the year epic fails" something like that. Delivery drivers drop a package off, scan package and take package... what the heck
the best example I could find.


Are we all going to need cameras now, at every door?

Edit: reason I made this post, several packages arrive this week. PSU for np lights today. Corals Wednesday, Maybe tuesday, but I may ask that one be shipped for Wednesday as well, due to freezing temps.

I've been moving things around, Not ideal, but... Making room for new things.
back on nov 30th, of course day time lights. and... I like the cloves on the bottom of the frag. But I don't know how to remove them without killing them.

I’ve heard that feeding a lot can lead to more splits not sure if true but mine recently split and I feed almost daily with mysis
I fed this guy 1 mysis cube, all it did was enjoy it. Back to normal feedings. I think it still needs to get closer to 200+ par. We are at 125. Not big on loving the light. Not sure why.

I wouldn't try it, unless you know how much your bta likes to eats. I think the lack of light causes a need for more food. I wonder, if I stop the weekly feedings, if he will go up for more light?

I was wrong about 125, that was a month ago, we are now at 160ish

I find it odd! I guess my sell point is "bta for sale, loves par levels between 60-170"
No not for sale ever. But, I do have a list... must pay for shipping ;)

For my growth updates, the monti cap is taking off. Grew half an inch since last time I measured. When ever that was...
I think the acropora is also happy. Looks can be deceiving?
The blasto has multiple polyps, but I would have to remove her off the plug to get the count. I think over 5 buds.
I am now attempting to measure the bta, ouch. Hard to do.
The goniopora are growing more polyps. Love my green frag.

The scopa, gave me a pose! I just have bad timing.
