What a long strange trip it's been....

Cheryl is just going to use that nem. as an excuse to upgrade.We all know her games......
The Clams will get big as well.

 

I'm excited for you Cheryl. I will have a nem as well and bounce between a carpet and a bubble tip. I agree to getting it in the tank as soon as possible and let it find it's home will give you a better chance of success.

 

I dare you to go find that post or thread. No seriously.

Hmmm I don't remember being one of those members that sets arbitrary dates like 6 months, 12 months. If your a new hobbyist then yeah best option is to wait, but I think waiting 6 months to put anemones is not realistic for some.

 

It's not my first Carpet and a nano.



A tank with two Clowns and a Carpet is enough for me.

 

Got this the large purple Montipora Digitata.

And this Acropora solitaryensis (not my piece), very similar to Efflo. Give it a try, I have always wanted to, it is a tabling acropora.

Sooooo I'll get to give the lighting some testing, acclimation mode seems like a good place to start.

Julian Sprung most love me, today I got the nano mag float, parts a/b and two fishes coral dip. Ordered some Chemipure as well.

 

Oh yeah the purple is awesome......Good choice!!
That solitaryensis should be a stunner under uv.

 

Thanks Vinny,

Yeah I like all the Montipora Digitata, they can be forgiving and they hold their color fairly well, oooo purple. Now the Solitaryensis, I have just been seeing it around on sites. Being that it's a tabling and I want to figure out how to acclimate to LED I figured I would not burn the crap out of a tabling, we will see. I have seen some really nice blue tipped pieces.

 

Very nice Cheryl. I just got a small Australian Solitaryensis frag from a friend of mine for safe keeping. He started it out under high light and I did the same. Only had it about two weeks and it's doing great.

 

Very cool Jerry,

Yeah I am going to mount the frag that. I choose the larger more plating frag on LA.

This is a really interesting read Jerry on the Emerald Solitaryensis, your coral is hard to come by.

Love tabling acropora, my favorite. You would think I would have a species that does. I guess my deathly red plant frag counts.
