Was at LEAR fragfest this weekend and ended up buying a VERY small Aussie gold torch. I’ve heard that they are tough…. But what made me pull the trigger was that it came from a mother colony that spawned in captivity, so truly aquacultured (and was only $75). I’ve had good luck so far with my Malaysian banana grail so hoping this guy works out!

Thank you! Can’t wait to get everything off the frag rack haha, it sticks out like a sore thumb

Beautiful torch for a great price! I scored a banana as well but for significantly more. Lear was a great event, I’m already looking forward to it next year! Are you going to Fragenstien in Middleburg Heights in October?

That looks great! I might have talked to you when I bought it! But not 100% sure. I went to fraggenstein last year and will def go again if they have it (heard it might not happen)

O-H!
