Higher Thinking Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Well now that I have your attention, check out this monster birds nest coral. It was just getting way too big and I kept practically giving it away. Well today I finally decided to send it to the garbage. I hated doing it, but there's only so much room and no one to take it. It was killing other coral it was growing into so death was inevitable. Sorry?? But I do have this giant purple cap that I'd like to re-home. I'd gladly trade for some frags or a few pesos. It's attached to a rock that has blue cloves, but if you didn't want them you could just break off huge pieces of the monti and chuck the rock. It's at least 14" x 8" x 5". Let me know. Thanks!

Jeremevans Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 I've got a birds nest problem on the horizon. I might be in your situation at some point. For now I've got space but I already know I'm not crazy about a tank full of birds nest. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badxgillen Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 You better keep that skeleton for display, or at least the reactor...That would be your salvation, not the garbage can. Nice colonies though, healthy looking coral. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheClark Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 You sassy SPS masters and your 'problems'! It would make a cool bleached specimen for a shelf sometime 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Higher Thinking Posted October 3, 2017 Author Share Posted October 3, 2017 You still in Corvallis?Naw I'm up in Scappoose. I work in NE Portland. I've got a birds nest problem on the horizon. I might be in your situation at some point. For now I've got space but I already know I'm not crazy about a tank full of birds nest. Sent from my SM-G900V using TapatalkYeah I hear ya. Everything has some beauty and I can appreciate it. But ultimately there is only so much room and killing the acros is personal! You better keep that skeleton for display, or at least the reactor...That would be your salvation, not the garbage can. Nice colonies though, healthy looking coral.Yeah I was really thinking about it. But it was too much of a hassle. I do have some regrets for not saving it for the calcium reactor. You sassy SPS masters and your 'problems'! It would make a cool bleached specimen for a shelf sometime [emoji4] My wife would probably appreciate a reduction in aquarium related stuff around the house. Haha. Calcium supplement?Unfortunately not this time. I have another chunk of it. Maybe when that's too big I'll toss it in the reactor.

albertareef Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Ahhh... first world coral problems. That was a substantial piece - too bad nobody had a giant empty tank they needed to fill. I need to trim some of mine soon as well - stating to shade my montis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever you can spare - doesn't need to be huge. Thanks man! I have some of the orange and green with purple rim I could bring for you if you don't have those already. BTW - looking forward to seeing you at the event - bring some pics of the house! Sorry Andrew... this should probably be in the frag fest trade thread now that there is one.
