downhill_biker Posted January 4, 2009 Author Share Posted January 4, 2009 yeah, i dont know if they grow faster or not. i do know that this one is a fast grower and like you said is encrusting well. i cant wait to see how it turns out when things are all said and done. "shawn's triple berry blast" is a sweet acro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCR Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 yeah it looks good. im amazed the growth it looks to be encrusting good. seems like fresh cut sps frags grow faster than colonies. i dunno. They usually do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downhill_biker Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 I just thought I would share with everyone my 3 trachy's. I love them, makes me feel like it is more of a real reef. By that I mean, I have seen more brain corals when snorkeling than anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downhill_biker Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 haha, i know it is starting to look like that, more of a frag tank than a show tank. i guess that is the way it goes some times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrgreenthumb Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Loving that monster monti colony curtis i'll have to get a frag!! Tank is looking good as usual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downhill_biker Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 thanks, thanks. the colony is going through a little shock at the moment, but will bounce back soon. its just getting used to new lighting and environment. probably will be fragging it up some time in spring. you want a piece, you got it, i'm sure that we can find something to trade.

downhill_biker Posted January 21, 2009 Author Share Posted January 21, 2009 Thought I would put up an update. I got a couple new clams. Here are all the clams, old and new. 1st Clam-Crocea 2nd Clam-Teardrop Maxima 3rd Clam-Blue Maxima 4th Clam-Derasa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albertareef Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Nice clams! Hmmm... that would probably sound more than a little wierd if this weren't a reef forum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA2OR Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 man you have some sweet clams there downhill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downhill_biker Posted January 21, 2009 Author Share Posted January 21, 2009 Nice clams! Hmmm... that would probably sound more than a little wierd if this weren't a reef forum There are a ton of things that only make sense to "us" when said. I couldn't imagine having anyone "normal" coming over and seeing how dark my skimmate is and then have them smell it. I have to invite all the neighbors over to see the tank, just so they don't think I am selling drugs. Glowing light, powder in containers on the counter (kalk), people in and out buying/trading, ect. Oh, and thanks for the comment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downhill_biker Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 Got some new acans at Seahorse and at the Eugene Meet and Greet. They are super sweet, but are very new, so haven't completely opened up and aren't looking up to their full potential. First three pics are from Seahorse (in tank for 3 days), and second two are from Eugene Meet and Greet (in tank for 3 hours). Acan #1 Acan #2 Acan #3 Acan #4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
