impur Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Been dead here lately, so i thought i'd throw up some pics of a few new acan frags i got. I'm using the new frag donuts i got recently and love em!! Quote
impur Posted July 10, 2008 Author Posted July 10, 2008 I think this is my fav of the 3, i'm hoping the red and orange come in a little more. And my rainbow acan echinata sporting a new frag donut. The great part is the this frag was on one of the frag plugs and the post goes right thru the center of the donut perfectly. Quote
spectra Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 They look nice(rock2) I just think you are getting to many things in there though(whistle) Might be time to thin them out(laugh) Quote

stylaster Posted July 11, 2008 Posted July 11, 2008 You can cure that aussie ringworm with some marmite.... blech nasty tasting stuff though, i can't believe people put it on their bread... sorta like vegemite Quote

impur Posted July 14, 2008 Author Posted July 14, 2008 Here is an article by Calfo/Borneman about the $$ being spent on Acans. www.reefkeeping.com/issues/2005-08/ebac/index.php All that being said I'm still going get my share; after I rob the liquor store with Andy! Where did you get these beauties; if I may be so bold? Nice, thanks for the link. I think the prices are actually starting to come down on some of them. It seems to all go in cycles, last year it was zoas with crazy prices. This year its acans. The story behind the 3 new acans is one night i was pretty bored, and i had about 5 or 6 beers in me at the time. I like to browse the online stores when i'm bored, and i eventually started looking on ebay. I saw the green, brown, and white centered acan sitting there at 14.99 with no bid and about 20min left until the auction expired. I read part of the auction to see the shipping charge and it said $20 shipping. Sweet! Uh not so sweet. After i bid, i re-read the auction and its 20 to ship to a couple states on the east coast. Its $40 to ship anywhere else. Well i thought crap i already bid, i don't want to pay 55 bucks for 3 polyps of an acan, so i checked out more of his auctions and saw the other 2 both ending soon. One was 19.99 the other 14.99 so i snagged em to make shipping worth it. The guy packed them really well and they were exactly like the pictures so i was happy about that. Needless to say i won't be doing anymore bidding on ebay after 6 beers again. (laugh) Quote
ThePremiumAquarium Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 LOL! I dont think you are the only one who has done that(whistle) I have a few really mediocre pieces that came into my collection from a very similar experience or two... or three. oops lol Garrett Quote
Algae Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 Drop a couple of tabs of acid; browned-out Acros fluoresce and carry on a most literate conversation.(scary) Sorry, recovering from the Country Fair. Ahh. the old daze(whistle) Liquid Sunshine is located next to a store that used to sell bong pipes. Talk about a built-in symbiotic business relationship! My corals ALWAYS look much bigger in the store (and NO, I don't use anymore). Quote
reefboy Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 If your addicted to Aussie acans better stay away from NWCFM or you'll need a intervention. Quote
impur Posted July 24, 2008 Author Posted July 24, 2008 Hey at least i'm at the first step! Hi, my name is Miles and i am addicted to aussie acans (laugh) Quote

biomekanic Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 I love acans, and LPS in general, but the prices on acans... yeesh. Quote
