My acro collection aka my obsession

[larangcon]

RIP, as in it RTN'd

That's too bad, this has a real potential to be one of the best out there, you can almost see the colors that will turn into something special

That's what I call RNJ Cataclysm- presently in recovery mode but alive and well- rough times in the Junkies reef last year 1st quarter

MattV Orange Envy lots of frags sold off that colony before it died so its out there.
Still see frags going for 300-350 shipped.

The Psycho Asylum of his (That I do have ) is nicer IMO amd Ive had nearly all Matts pieces pass through my tanks.

Thanks!
Top picture is a wild piece and the bottom I believe came from a mari piece I got a few years ago. Trying to work out some photography bugs ( me... I'm the bug, I'm STILL trying to figure this out) some pics come out fine others are pure garbage but I learn by trial and error, lots of errors
LOL

Hi Brad,

Joe Peck here. Longtime reefer in NY. Sadly I had a tank crash this winter due to a power outage/ generator failure. I'm in rebuild mode and came across this thread whilst looking for a couple particular corals. I'm planning on having just 4 or 5 colonies in my DT and letting them grow big.

Anyways to the point right . . . First, your skills as a reefkeeper and a photographer are fantastic. Great job and thanks for sharing! Second, I'm looking for a piece of Oregon Tort, Ice Fire, Upscale Mirco, GB SSC Sarmentosa, and I'd love a piece of the pink polyped coral above, but it looks like that guy is small.

I'm in no rush and actually off on vacation for a couple weeks so I'd be looking at late August early September for an order, but I'd be willing to pay top dollar for everything.

Sorry about posting here. I admit to old guy lack of savy on tech stuff and had to resort to posting on the thread rather than sending a PM as I couldn't find the PM link anywhere.

Feel free to respond in whatever way is best for you PM, email, whatever.

Thanks a bunch!

Joe

I agree

 

[ChicagoNanoGuy]

Man you got some killer Millis do you frag ever ?

 

[Reefnjunkie]

I will be posting some updates but not until probably next weekend at the earliest.

Something unknown took a toll on my collection last year. I spent months trouble shooting all the while losing acro after acro.

Probably lost 40-50 percent of my collection could be more or less, I dont care to do the math LOL

Good news is all is better now (knock on wood) so it seems and the great rebuild of 2019 has started.

I think I've added 50-60 pieces amd now the nurturing begins again
