$40 a piece right now at Petco

I'm almost positive that it came in as an Acropora humilis. It looks a little different from the growth pattern that you are getting but none the less, I like the name Giant Green Slimer.

Thank you everyone for the Birthday wishes It's definitely been a busy last 4-6 months. The new location is at 30789 SW Suite K Boones Ferry Rd. Wilsonville, 97070 Shop Phone: 503-570-2781 Erin is the new shops owner and he would love to show everyone around. He is also planning to sponsor the club very soon!

I'm not sure that I have seen much of it around the area but you might try looking for some green Montipora spumosa or M. confusa. I see many very nice specimens of them around.

Nicely done Robert! I love the color on these ones.

The line is wrapping around the building. Come by all weekend for awesome deals!

I wouldn't mind trying out your new CA reactor on my new 150g cube tank. I am not sure that it would be rated large enough but if you think it would work well and you are ok with a Salem location, I would be happy to beta test it for you. I have a 300g display setup with a traditional reactor about 10ft away that can be used as a comparison. Many options for testing and monitoring as well.

I have Chili Pepper, Setosa, and Seasons Greetings that I would be willing to swap. I am sure I could make 6-8 frags. I started a new sps tank and wouldn't mind getting my hands on some more variety.

I can't tell you how many people that I have had switch back. It would boggle your minds. Then again, I have tons of customers that switch to LED's. Most of the time though, I see people upgrade to better LED's as apposed to switch back to metal halide or T5. I personally find them all useful depending upon the tank, what is being stocked, desired look, etc. I still heavily use MH and T5's and I use quite a bit of LED's as well. I am constantly debating each option for each particular scenario.

You are very welcome sir. Thank you for bringing in your excess

We have Peppermint shrimp that eat it well at the shop. Aiptasia eating Filefish are also in.

Joel, I have a few dozen sheets. I may even have a piece that is roughly the size you are looking for.

Hi Kate, Glad to see you back on here! Let me know if I can help at all. I currently have an almost new 150g 4x2x29" with corner overflows and black silicone with matching black all pine stand available. I also have a 150g DD marineland cube with starfire front panel and a matching stand and canopy. The cube also has a killer sump that Charles built that comes with it. Feel free to hit me up if you need any help or have any questions.

Looking real good! The little scorpions are awesome and yes, very cute little pokey fish. If all else, come get some feeder guppies. We have had a few customers acclimate them over to saltwater and just breed a constant feeding supply. I know that the scorpion will take frozen soon since it has been eating frozen for the last couple of months but the lion may be a bit harder to get on frozen.

Happy Independence Day Weekend! The 4th of July has always been one of my favorite holidays! Starting today through the close of business on Sunday, all Fish, Corals, Plants, and Invertebrates are Buy 2 Get One of Equal or Lesser Value for FREE!!! All Liverock is Buy 2 Pounds, Get 1 Pound FREE! Have a fun and safe 4th of July! Play with water and spend more on your aquarium than on fireworks this year hahaha.

I am a big fan of Danner Magdrive pumps. Like Robert says, they are very nice and easy to find replacement parts for. I am currently running them on ever system in my warehouse and several systems in my shop. I have slowly been switching to all matching Mag 24's so that I can keep replacement parts and pumps in that all match up. Very versatile pumps with many applications. You have what looks like a very good start to what will surely become an amazing pond!

I think we have all been there. My display is currently recovering from oxygen deprivation that occurred during a power outage that I was unaware of until the next morning. It's never fun but rebuilding and making things better is always fun. I am sure that there are a few frags that can be made to get you back up and rolling.

If you don't end up finding any, we have a bunch of all of them in stock. They are behind the counter so just ask one of the guys for them.
