[MarvinsReef]

Wow.. that's some super growth Marvin... do you spot feed those?

you're talking about the zoas right? I don't spot feed really... I just feed my fishes and whatever lands on them is theirs.. sometimes I see them take food, sometimes I don't.. so I don't really know if they're consuming the food.. :)

I hope they do well too Marvin :D

I want to get on the micro frag list now!!

Sandy

pm me with the ones you want.. another 2-3 months and I should be ready to make my first frags... :)

Starting today, I'll be having a photo(s) of the day (PotD) in this thread... I figured I'll limit my addiction of posting too many pics if I stick to this thread... probably between 1-3 photos per day is my limit... :)

it's also a great way to keep track of the progression of certain morphs.. ;)

PPRPE might be on a growth spurt... hang on... go PPRPE! go PPRPE! GO! GO! GO!

pardon the crappy shot..

 

[JGoslee]

Great idea to keep track of you collection. Is that pic with flash?

Thanks bro.. and yeah, great catch.. flash photo and the lights are off when I took it.. I only had a flashlight lit when I took the shot... :)

Man those are sweet......

Thats how I take all my pics now. I turn out the lights and use flash. IMO it really shows the coral the way it looks in person.

actually I got it as a 2-3 polyps frag... it was maltreated for couple of months and lost it's coloration during the SE MH days and finally regaining it's beauty... it def reminded me how nice this specific morph is and how bad I wanted it... hope to keep it happy and producing from here on.. :)

 

[Pufferpunk]

I hope they do well for you too! ;)
