So it hasn't produced any babies on its own since you had it? Beautiful for sure! I bet that was nerve racking to cut it!

Man I'm pretty sure that Garf used to frag discosoma using a blender and then just poured the mess back into the tank. You should give that a shot ;) And make a video if you do!

You got nerves of steel Dat! And you were worried about splitting anemones when you're cutting up this beauty! I envy your wealth in corals man and the sick stuff you got!

I had to, make sure the lineage live on. Because I am not a nem expert and have killed two under my belt. However, this third one is doing good.

How did you kill them? Tank too clean? Too dirty? Any idea? Every time @BSA Corals sends me a picture of one of these I just pretend I didn't get the message.... Very very hard to resist a coral like that.

I just think I suck at keeping nem in the beginning, however, I bought a true csb nem and bam it did a natural split and so far they're doing good.

The only real success I have had with nems was with a 6-7" rose bubble tip (under metal halides) that I acquired long before they were crazy popular. I had it for 3-4 years along with a pair of large, wild true percs. I had to feed the thing all of the time though (shrimp slivers). Ended up selling it and the percs when I broke down that tank.
