    assesing where future frags might come from - those new branches on the base are about 12mm long so maybe in a couple of months, off they come

    Those macro shots are awesome...

    Im always looking for potential frags on my coral also... are you looking to make a few yen? Wonder if there are a lot of fellow reefers out by you to sell or trade.

    Thanks John

    the vendor I get majority of SPS frags from has a site on Chinese E bay (Tao Bao) and he sends messages by QQ to us when he gets stock in
    he includes a file in the message with images of the corals
    I indicate which J pegs I want and when I will go to collect, and he will hold those corals for up to 6 days for me ( if his stock arrives Monday he is happy to wait until following Sunday for me to go and collect)

    I know there are many people wanting these frags, because I once received about 50 images on a Thursday, selected 6, went to collect them on Saturday, and there in the shop he had my 6 and probably about another 6 that had not been sold in the 3 days so business on the SPS frags is very good for him

    Fantastic, I think that is a good sign for buyers when vendors work with you that way. Congrats on finding one.
