    Would you believe that I got all of this for under $100 also not shown are some zoos, favia, and a couple other small sps frags. Too bad I had to drive over two hours but it was well worth it I think. Let me know what you all think. Thanks - Ryan

    Yeah the tort has been on my list for a while and I was able to get a frag for a pretty decent price compared to online. The mother colony I got it from was beautiful, I'm hopeful mine will grow to that size some day. It's tough being patient waiting for frags to grow but when they do you really feel that you accomplished something. Kind of like growing a garden of vegetables and then eating them. ;D

    I'm sad to say I just lost mine along with an Oregon Tort and a purple monster.

    What happened, anything specific that you know of? I have heard they are pretty hardy but if I can avoid anything please let me know. Thanks

    Yeah the wife wanted to go shopping in San Fran, so I got to go shopping as well. I got the majority of acans and sps from Aqua Life Aquarium, they had some beautiful stuff with really good prices as well. I also hit up YourReef too. I definitely recommend Aqua life, guys are great and very friendly. He sold me each acan frag for 20 bux, each has no less than 9 eyes/heads.
