Just saw this...thanks man! I hear your setup is a sweet one, I will have to bring ya down some goodies one of these days and check it out .

Yep, it's all still available. Only change is that i am down to 1 rainbow monti, the rest of that list is accurate.

I am going to try and make it to that, I'll get a ponape cut for ya!

I am done fragging those ones for a while, the three frags I just made are healing up and already spoken for. Sorry!

Yea I am just going to leave them be, and let them grow off the plug. I don't want to stress and potentially melt them. Just time is all we need now!

Yea I will make a portland trip at some point tomorrow (not quite sure when/where yet), but I can meet up at some other point in the next week too if needed.

Oh man, no pressure on me to keep the strand alive or anything! hahaha

If you still have that acrylic tank/stand/hood and want to work a trade hit me up. I can get ya a nice starter pack of corals if you want.

Bumping this up...thinking about making a trip down to Portland tomorrow if anyone wanted to meet up, or if anyone wants to swing by just hit me up!!

Bumping this up, who still has these bad boys? I have mine still going strong, anyone else?

Ok will get some of those for ya. They are more red in person, picture shows them a bit brown. Google images of valentines day massacre brings up the closest I can find to them.

Give Chris (arminius) a call. Former member here, I think he got rid of his tank and doesn't get on here much if at all but does great work. 720-841-0845 used to be his number.

STILL AVAILABLE: 1. Big pink montipora colony: $80? I would like to take a piece off and start the colony growing again for myself if that's cool with the buyer, but right now its taking up too much real estate as is. 2. Ponape Birdsnest - this is the colony, happy to frag off pieces if anyone wants - frags $10-20 3. Rainbow encrusting montipora - 4 frags available, all encrusting well on their plugs - $25-30 (1 @25, 2 @30) 5. Sunset encrusting montipora- 1x frag $20 6. Orange Leptastrea colony - $40 - sorry, cant get a good picture. Can move the colony if someone is interested and take a picture. 7. Tri Color Valida - growing like a weed, can trim depending on how big of a piece you want. 8. Nuclear green paly colony, 20 heads - $50 10. Devils Armor zoas, with the curly skirts - 17 heads - $30 11. Eagle eye/whammin watermelon zoas (one of the two, if there is a difference, my bad) - $.50 per polyp, they are growing on the sand so I can get them fragged up easily. 12. Green pagoda cup - 5ish inches - $35? 13. Minefield cyphastrea - fully encrusted plug -$15 Green Psammocora (ora if i recall correctly) 1@ $30, 1@$15 Purple death paly frag 2 heads- $8 PENDING: .1x Rainbow encrusting montipora - theClark 1x Ponape Birdsnest- theClark 1x Pokerstar encrusting montipora - 1x small frag encrusting on plug - $10 - theClark Teco Forbidden Fruit Zoas (if we can get them fragged) - Sasquatch, theClark, badxgillen SOLD: 9.

Sounds good, lets get to fragging! Are you free today? If we can get frags, ill send one your way! Any more forbidden fruits? Or the corals listed? I pretty much still have everything in the original ad, and should be free most of the day if you wanted to swing by. I'll get ya on the list!

Sweet! Shoot me a call/text if you want and we can work on a time to meet (same offer goes to anyone else too), my number is 503-931-5760

Sending a pm soon... Got ya down for em. The devils armor are the chunk right in the middle of that picture (under #10), but I have quite a few, the main colony is seen in the picture with the montis (under #5). Great question! I am not quite sure what that is myself. Got it as a brown mystery nubbin at one point and its grown out since and keeps coloring up more and more. It is oddly porous, moreso than other acros I have had. If anyone has any guesses at an ID id love to hear it!

Got ya down for them, pm sent Shoot me an offer and i'm sure we can work something out. Thanks bud! Still need to check yours out one of these days too Will do!

Inbox cleared! Sorry all, totally forgot about the inbox full of 2012 messages

Time to thin the herd a bit. Prices are OBO, if I am off on them just let me know. Located in Vancouver Wa. Not looking for much trade wise right now unless ya have any small SPS colonies, utter chaos zoas, or some established reef safe fish. 1. Big pink montipora colony: $80?

Minefield cyphastrea - fully encrusted plug -$15 Other things I don't have pictures of but are available: (google is your friend searching for what these look like, as my picture skills are limited at best, or they are in a tough spot to take the picture) Green Psammocora (ora if i recall correctly) 1@ $30, 1@$15 Purple death paly frag 2 heads- $8 I have some more zoas as well, I am just a terrible fragger of them. Everlasting gobstopper, sunny d's, etc. And if you have a saw, I could frag up duncans and a LA lakers scroll, both very much in need of a cutting back.

Someone local grab this up! I can deliver down to the Eugene/Springfield area if need be too. And definitely don't ship, I just got hosed selling my skimmer, figured it would cost 30-40 to ship...ended up being 72. Ouch.

Add me to the Calcium Reactor side. I switched over from dosing a while back and have really enjoyed it after the initial dial in period. I used to dose cal/alk/mag, and both certainly do the trick, I just felt I was missing that extra little something. I just assumed it was the trace elements not normally found in the alk/cal/mag that I used to dose, but seeing as those are the only 3 I tested for, I don't have any concrete proof other than the growth rate and polyp extension. Seeing as I travel quite a bit it is nice to not have to worry about a doser staying on and wiping out my tank, someone knocking a jug of whatever into my tank, etc. Worst case is the reactor runs and slowly raises levels if my controller were to crap out, or it kicks off and they slowly lower. Neither would do much harm over a couple day period in my case. And for stability purposes, the SPS seem quite a bit happier as I am not constantly fiddling with parameters any more. For smaller tanks I think dosing is a very effective method, heck for larger tanks too, I just prefer running a calcium reactor. I am lazy, I don't test parameters often, and I am REALLY bad at doing water changes, so its nice to be able to test for the first time in 3-4 months and see all my parameters right where i want them, as that just happened a few weeks ago for me when I did test. Its fun to me to go off of the eye test, how are the corals looking, and then react from there and not chase numbers. Stability is the key!! Jump on the calcium reactor bandwagon, you know you want to!

I am running two rw15's on my cube with almost identical dimensions and they are doing a great job. Not sure where you are located at, but if you ever want to come check them out and play around with the different flow options just let me know, you are more than welcome to.

Thanks!! Yours is looking awesome, I am VERY envious of that elegance...always wanted one of those and have never had one. Beautiful piece.

Woo! Great idea!
