Optimusprime3605 Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Well I may be out before it even starts mine still hasn't opened up..........I may have got a dud [emoji23] I'm somewhat in the same boat, Scott. Mine hasn't opened yet either. Was excited to see that I got a chunky frag at first (about 5 closed polyps) but would rather had 2 polyps fully open. Not giving up hope just yet....fingers crossed.

Emerald525 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Well I’m out! I checked the tank yesterday and there were 4 polyps and now there is an empty plug! Maybe I will find these floating in the tank. Those of you with closed polyps have a better chance than me! I was only in this for the trash talking and bragging rights so not a big loss. I suppose I have a month to find them ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of puts a damper on the trash talking - I was looking forward to that. 😕 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still looking for them .. By the way I have another OME. I forgot about it and it was under the overflow box. Since it’s not in mint condition I will let you have it. I can bring it to the meeting and maybe you can give me a piece of the pink boobies. Jeff said he would replace frags lost in the first week by the way.

badxgillen Posted April 24, 2018 Author Share Posted April 24, 2018 Well folks, the deadline is in a few days here, I know I need to get my camera battery charged and take those pics too. And don't forget Jeff may have some replacements for certain mishaps that may have taken place. I find it odd that a few did not open, I made sure to dip mine and then it looked happy the next day. Like Kim said it can take a few days to weeks to get some zoas to bounce back, so don't give up the fight. Oh, and one more thing, as long as there are no objections we have added a last minute contestant to the game, The DSBlack, I feel the more the merrier... So I sure hope Kim and Jtarmitage can get to Cuttlefish And Corals soon and get back in on this. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not expecting to win since I'm not a zoa pro. lol. I'm mostly looking forward to the comparison between the wide variety of set ups and see how each one grows zoa frags. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
