I've got a frag on a plug. If your in san Francisco I can give ya a piece to test. Is the thought that if they were not compatible that they will kill each other? I've got the colony growing against a WWC yellow tip and they seem to get along! I thought they were gonna marry each other...

Well I didn't really want to have this "argument" so lets get back to the topic of this thread which is ID'ing corals. The swap is over but i'm just bringing this up because the orange creamsicle sparked my interest and I looked it up and it looks a lot like the one I have. Just wanted...

Thought I'd post this if anyone needs to prep for the next swap. I didn't have any foam to float the frag and I didn't want to just throw the frag and plug into the specimen container so I made this last night for the frag swap. basically its a stand to hold the plug in the center upright...

Sorry but for those that are this uptight about naming corals, sorry to break it to you but unless theres some kind of certification, DNA, whatever, you just have no clue what you got unless you personally got it straight from the source. I've got a fairly grown out coral and I'd just like to...

never got the identification for this but I noticed something that popped up on the ultra list and this coral looks an aweful lot like TGC orange creamsicle.

who do i rsvp with for the event?

Oh definitly not palythoa. I had them when I first started and never again. took me a while to get rid of every last one of those.

Oh just found out June 7 is salmon fishing day. June 7-8. Unless the weather is really bad I don't think I'm gonna make it.

Route66 Marlin Staff ? Thats one of the names I got in the list for the frag pack I bought.

I don't bother with water change at all. I'm on moonshiners. I adjust based on ICP-MS test from moonshiners. I find that water changes radically changes the trace elements levels in the tank (water change does not properly replinish the trace elements.). Without water changes, I know the...

uploading pix of the still unidentified coral. I bought an orange filter so hopefully this one is a better shot. Definitly matches what I see with my eyes more. Could use an ID on this one

Yup took me a bit of time to understand that spreadsheet.. I deleted that post once I figured it out.

LOL love my rock! Old tonga rock. Is it even worth bringing the big rock with all the zoas?

Oh I see. the list of corals for the bonus rounds are already in that spreedsheet in the other thread.

ok a few more frags for id. These are too small to frag. right now. I have an idea on first one (it was a super super slow grower. what you see was 1 year of growth at the top of the tank.)

Heck yes I am trying to get into the ultra / bonus rounds and I want to make sure what I'm bringing qualifies. Unfortunately when I buy corals I dont track names of anything. I just buy what looks nice to me after seeing the main colony (for growth pattern and color).. But more importantly I...

heres some pictures. The rock with all the green zoas.. I kinda want my rock back. Same with the rock with the red zoas. I put a frag with 3 polys of red on that flat rock.. Next thing i know, it took over the entire rock.

Its not a ton anymore (some people came and grabbed some). Maybe a few carpets worth, a bunch of loose ones.. I would say maybe 1/2 square foot of zoas? I'll just bring what I got. I'll try and print out some photos of what they look like. If I can't make it on the 7th then i'll bring it...

hey I have a ton of Zoa's for the frag swap. If this workshop is for fragging, anyone wanna frag up what I have to give away? I just don't have the time. Anyone from san francisco going to this workshop? If not then put me down on coming. I really don't wanna flush these zoas down the...

Oh I'll have to double check mine. For some reason my camera isn't picking up the yellow and turning things green compared to what I see with my own eyes. I'll have to double check to see the colors of the polyp but if its not a true vivid confetti I'll update my post for the frag swap sheet...
