    Hello Reefers!

    So here goes my first large batch of frags and mini colonies that I have ready for sale.  I just took these with my camera phone so the colors aren't all as good looking as they are in person.  Everything is healthy and showing growth!  If you would like a picture of the mother colony or anything else just let me know, the colors are better represented there.  In my display they are sitting under LED's at all depths and in the frag tank they are under 4 T5's.  If you get multiple pieces, I am more opt to give better deals!  

    If requesting additional pictures, include which corals by number and an email address to send them too.

    Thanks!

    #1 Frogspawn: 2 heads left at $10 ea
    #2 Spongode: $30
    #3 Spongode: $10

    #10 and #11 Encrusting "favia like" coral (I don't remember the name) Green w/ purple centers: $25
    #12 Blue (Devil?) Polyp Finger Leather at least 1" frags: $15  (Let me know and I can get pieces cut and healing for you) 1- 1" piece sold pending pick up.  I'd probably make two more pieces!

    What would you say the color is on #12? Is that the mother colony or an example of a frag? How much would a 2-3" frag be? Thanks

    Travis: to be honest, I have mine in low light conditions. I also have mine and high lights areas so either works. What kind of lighting do you have?

    Live aquaria says they need moderate to high light. Mine are at the bottom of my 220 and as happy as can be!

    Well in trying to decipher than message, I'm not thinking your going to be having enough light... (screw in compact fluorescent bulbs?) The math isn't really adding up if you have two 10W bulbs, that's only 20W of light, not the 50W you were saying. If I'm reading your post wrong I'm sorry. Just want to make sure you have what these corals need before selling them to ya! :-)

    Drs foster and smiths website said the 10 watt 50/50 creates the same amount of light as a 50 watt bulb. My buddy that has a lfs said i can grow softies and lps with them.

    That's cool, I just wanted to make sure. I've got two heads left if you want them. I would keep them closer to the top if at all possible.

    Sorry to keep commenting but, how big are the frags and how fast/big do they get? Thanks!

    Right now I would guestimate the heads (when polyps are extended) are a quarter to a little smaller than half-dollar sized. I have seen some heads that have polyps out that size of baseballs so it all depends on your tank conditions. They grow moderately fast in my opinion but every tank is different. I'll try to post pics of the heads I have left or you can just come check them out in person.

    WHAT IS THE COLOR?   I see part of it is already sold, do you have enough left for a 2" piece?  Willing to trade for anything?

    Crazee: my best description of the color is blue with a tan undertone. I do still have enough for a 2in piece if you'd like.
    Patrick: thanks, you and everyone else wants a piece. I think it will be a while yet. Lol

    Ok, thanks, think I will pass for now, maybe wait until you have some bigger pieces.
