  1. These are beautiful well kept corals. His mother colonies are superb with lots of pop. I purchased several frags from Sonn a couple weeks back and they are all growing really well. This is my first time with SPS and I am carefully monitoring all parameters and hoping that I can keep them. Some have noticeable growth already! I highly recommend this for those of you wanting some healthy frags.
  2. Kim, Could you put me down for 1 - Lava Rain and 1 - Blood Drop. Thanks!
  3. I was at Rudy's place this morning and it is great. He was extremely helpful and there was so much to look at. I brought home several pieces that are looking good in the tank. Thanks Rudy. The meeting next month will be great there!
  4. Those are great pictures. Did you just use your phone or was there some other equipment used? The corals looks great!
  5. I think that is very common place at the meetings. Check with Emerald525 for the definitive word.
  6. Rudy - What is the chance of stopping by your shop this weekend. Is there a time when it would be open to site members? Thanks!
  7. I just got a couple at the meeting last week and they are not looking too healthy at this point. I lowered them to a point where the flow is much less and the light is not as intense. Hope that helps them open up more fully. In the past I have found them to be fun to watch as part of the tank and they have been really healthy and open.
  8. That sounds great. I just thought it was a grow out. I have several frags in the tank for the first time and most are looking really good showing signs of growth and good color. Thanks for the reply!
  9. I have not seen anything yet on the acro frag grow out from our last meeting. Does anyone know if this grow out has officially started and where the info can be found? Thanks!
  10. I would like to get put on the list to borrow the USB meter. Whenever it is available would be great. I have never checked my par ratings and would love to see what they are in different parts of the tank. Thanks!
  11. Would there be enough people interested to get an educational round table discussion about growing SPS or some other skill that many of our members seem to possess? We have lots of members that have tons of hands on experience.
  12. This is my first post. I have a 200 gallon system. 2 - MP40 opposite sides staggered flow 75 gallon sump (homemade) with sock, Vertex Omega 180i skimmer (1 bad attitude powder brown tang resides here along with a coral eating butterfly) 4 Kessil A360WE tuna blue on variable 8 hours up to 30% color and 50% intensity. 1 purple tang, 1 powder blue tang, 3 clowns, 1 goby, 3 shrimp, several hermit crabs and lots of snails. Fish get fed 4/5 times weekly frozen and occassional pellets Corals include mostly softies with some SPS that I am trying for the first time including currently acro grow out contest. Parameters checked several times each week, water change of 40 gallons every 1/2 weeks. Corals get fed 3 times a week or so with Reef Roids doing spot feeding Currently dosing with two part based on tests last test showed: alk 9.2, cal. 410, mag. 1360, ph. 8.2, temp. 78, sal. 1.025 i have 4 polyps - plug is currently set pretty low for acclimation but will raise it up soon for more light.
  13. Looks good. I would give it a try for sure.
  14. I gave you the wrong number and so did not get your text. I am interested in your sump still and will be in Kelso this afternoon if you had time to show it. My number is 360-921-5421, Thanks!
  15. I wanted to thank Kim for all of the hard work on the meeting. It was a lot of fun and the group buys and grow outs will be lots of fun in the future as they start blossoming. Special thanks for the zoa frag that you brought for me and the dosing pump. I will bring you a frag some time in the near future. Thanks again
  16. Welcome to the forum. I hope you can make the meeting Sunday. There is going to be a ton of great stuff. If you have not seen the shop, that alone would be worth the trip.
  17. I am looking for a dosing pump. If anyone has one they would like to get rid of please PM me with the details. I will be at the meeting Sunday and could pick up at that time. Thanks!
  18. If you want to get rid of some of them I would be interested in a frag. PM sent.
  19. I would be interested in the torch and the Mandarin goby also the blasto if it is available (light purple green) PM sent
