JasonH Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 I'm thinking about picking up an Ice Fire Echinata (now on it's way) (drooler), so I thought I'd sell some frags to raise funds for the expensive purchase. I don't generally like to sell corals (except when I'm fund raising (naughty)), but I have some frags that I haven't traded off, so we'll see how it goes. Superman Monti (bought this one straight from Tubs/Bruddah) - 2 1 available, already fragged and encrusted, small (1/2" round), - $25 each Sunset Monti (from ReefReady.net) - I have a huge colony, so plenty available - at least 1/2", but will try to get bigger - will be fresh cut/mounted - $25 GARF Purple Bonsai (from ReefReady.net) - 1 available gone, will be fresh cut/mounted, decent size not tall but multi-branched - $40 Pink Lemonade Acro (from ReefReady.net) - 1 available sold very small, about a 3/8" sliver, no branches. This coral fully encrusts before starting up, so you're in for a long wait. But I don't know of anyone else that has it locally, and it's a $100/frag coral (already cut/mounted, and beginning to encrust) - $30 Green Polyp Toadstool - 2 or 3 available, small gone - $15 I also have a mini-colony of Idaho Grape Monti cap. I got this from GreenMako on RC (was TOTM). It's never found a home in my tank and has gotten moved around to mostly keep it out of the way. It looks more brown than purple in my tank, but I've never been very good to it. It's a great size (~3 1/2" around) and is the real deal, but look very blah right now. Don't really know what a fair price is for this one - I mostly just want to get rid of it. How about $25. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks.

wanareef Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 I'll have to catch you next time you are selling, tank still cycling DOH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonH Posted May 28, 2009 Author Share Posted May 28, 2009 GARF Purple Bonsai is now spoken for. I'm really surprised people aren't more interested in the Pink Lemonade. I thought I'd get multiple hits the first night for that one. wanareef - yeah, give me a shout when you're up and running. I usually don't post stuff for sale, but things are beginning to grow in so I'll have stuff available if asked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stylaster Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 hey jason did you know if you are going to be at the june 6th meeting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonH Posted May 29, 2009 Author Share Posted May 29, 2009 Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to make the meeting. I've got a friend visiting that weekend and don't want to drag to something in which he has no interest. Pink Lemonade is sold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA2OR Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 I would be interested in trade if you are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonH Posted June 4, 2009 Author Share Posted June 4, 2009 Bump for one more Superman Monti (small, $25) and one new Pink Lemonade sliver (less than a frag - this is just cut/mounted, same very small piece as the last one, price reduced to $30).

jason7504 Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 gotta pic of the grape monti cap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonH Posted June 4, 2009 Author Share Posted June 4, 2009 Just got a new camera and am charging the battery now - will snap a picture tomorrow. It's almost 4" around (it's mounted from underneath and growing in a circle). Like I said, it's never found a spot in my tank and looks a bit blah - still has the bright purple polyps, but the rest of the color isn't what it should be.

jason7504 Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 how far from the light is it located? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonH Posted June 4, 2009 Author Share Posted June 4, 2009 The coral is (right now) 7" below the surface and the light is 1' off the water. The coral has been there for about a month and is doing better than it's prior spot. I also just switched to a 20K light 4 to 6 weeks ago. While some colors (e.g. green) really pop, it makes other colors - specifically purple - look a little weird to me. My GARF Bonsai and my Purple Monster both look different. Not bad - just different. I think I'm just adjusting to the new spectrum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonH Posted June 4, 2009 Author Share Posted June 4, 2009 Brandon - that's great news. Your frag is growing off the frag disc - I was about to have to frag your frag! Unfortunately, I won't be able to make the meeting. I might be able to get your frag there, and I can just pick mine up later. I'll get back to you.
