That's a whole lotta chalice. Wow

Hey Clint, I really like all my new corals. THANKS!! PS. I found a one polyp piece of that "lime in the sky" just hanging on near the cut; I glued it down separate from the frag, we'll see if I can get it to GO! I like those tiny frags, lol......

I wouldn't worry about it too much but also wouldn't add it to your system all at once.

Infectious bacteria? Set it out in the sun. Bacteria (infectious or not) will not survive such. Your other option is to set it in a five gallon bucket of tank water and put a powerhead it in. how many pounds do you have anyway?

not a nudi. Regardless it's out of the tank now. I dip all of my zoas using RO water and a iodine-based coral dip or Lugol's. It doesn't take long for nudis to start falling off, zoa spiders can dig in a little and it may take a little longer. Most of the other critters fall off quickly usually in less than a minute or two. Look for sundial snails while you are at; they are cute but deadly - see below. The most important step is to inspect each polyp for nudi egg cases which are spiral-shaped. Pick them off with tweezers. Again I use a magnifying glass or 2X readers to get a close look. It's worth the hassle to pre-treat and inspect thoroughly regardless of where the frag or colony is from. Truth is I pick off nearly everything (algae, sponge, detritus, clams, black stinky crap, etc.) but the zoas, if it's a nasty rock I may peel them off that and remount.

RAYMOND! It's a girl!

Lesson learned, don't buy fish without doing the research first. I've been guilty of that on too many occasions.

Doesn't look nudi to me. Take a red or blue light and inspect all of your colonies at night with a magnifying glass or 2X readers. I don't see signs of zoapox just maybe some detritus. Keep em clean with a baster or powerhead. What's up with the rubberbands? PS. What kind of zoas do you have that are melting? Where are they from?

Heck, I'll bring my camera over and take pics of you doing the backstroke!

ahhh refreshing SPS

You gotta a friend in me...

That's right. I'm in Buda, just minutes from Cabela's.

I like all the dunnos. need to get them spread around....

Where'd they go? jk,,, thay are awesome zoas.

Go with some of the LED bars for your moonlight. I'm using the stunner blue and love it so far.

Think of it as just reducing the calcium uptake rate. Easier to maintain...

Break off any of that rainbow prostrata?? hint...

Once he's king, he'll be taking chunks out of you too!! Good luck.

No... bring some things back to save on shipping!! I'll take the ....

What a rock beauty.

Love the polyps! Fragged the ORA_GBPA this evening for ya'll. THX

Nice mix!
