    D007,

    There are more just like him around here. You will have to get to one of our club meetings and join the club my friend. Andy has some great stuff and when we all get together we find that we all share some of the same hobby addictions aswell as the saltwater one .

    Update, I actually have a whole lot more of these available now. Pretty much everything that has been listed and was previously sold out I've fragged more of and are again available.

    I got in there and did some trimming on some amorphous colonies and ended up with lots of the following:

    ORA Red Planet Acropora (gorgeously colored, more than 5 available) $25ea
    ORA Chips blue acropora (again, amazing polyp extension everybody who has already been by is raving about this stuff, more than 8 available) $20ea
    2 more frags of Strawberry Shortcake Acropora (precious precious stuff, I was reluctant to cut but I had a couple branches shading out my oregon tort) $30ea
    ORA Bird of Paradise 2 pieces still available nice sized $20-25
    One super gorgeous piece of shamrock favia $25

    BIG (overgrown frags on 2" discs) pieces of ORA montipora spongeodes $15ea
    As always an endless supply of Bali Green slimmer is available 3" frags for just $10 bucks (show stopper, totally toxic green!)
    Inexhaustable supply of mushrooms, xenia, yellow star polyps etc.
    ORA mini duncans, Trumpets, Minefield cyspastrea, and meteorshower cypshastrea and ORA tricolor frags anytime you want them!

    I'm building an Intel system so I'm going to need a little extra padding yet guys! help me out here! lol

    Hey Dustin! It's a fresh cut, many of these are. They've all been set up for a couple of days and are doing well. One of these is quite a bit bigger than the other, it's easily 1/2" with 3 little branches. I can give ya dibs on it.

    I work 2nd shift all week guys, I have Friday off all day. Or anyday stop by before 1pm, I'm out the door by 2.

    Noel you are really going to enjoy that book! Please get back to me soon and let me know how you liked it. I think it may give you new perspectives and ideas about aquaculture. I'm very excited to hear about the internship experiences when you get to that part of your program. I hope you'll keep us here @ GIRS updated!

    That article I wrote was on my personal blog page which I forgot, I've recently taken down for remodeling. I'll send you a copy if you want to PM me your email.

    Haha you got it buddy! Isn't that stuff great, you gotta see it in person! It's much deeper blue. It is such a wallflower in my tank among all the other colors and shapes, most people don't recognize it. But every night when I come home I look at that thing under the moon lights, the polyp extension is reaching for the skies!!!! Love it!

    Andy,

    Sounds like a great build! I like this Case man http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129097 or this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129179



    I see you enjoy Gigabyte boards as do I. I use to run Soyo boards and liked them very much and then they stop selling them at some point. So I went to Gigabyte because of the dual Bios system. It has saved my but a few times when doing some tweeking with my CPU speeds.

    Yah I like Gigabyte boards for the same reason. Also, they tend to run a bit cooler than the comparable ASUS board (not to mention ASUS is getting too big for their britches IMO). I had an ASRock board a few years ago I really liked. But nothing beats the OC utility in the Gigabyte BIOS.

    I decided on this tower http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129178&Tpk=antec%201100 and it's a BEAST! It would swallow my Antec 300 whole! Literally it will fit inside of it! Plenty of room for GPU, well designed, big compartment for cable management. I moved my current system into it already and I LOVE it. Back plate has a spot where the CPU goes on the mobo for access to add harness for water cooling blocks and a fan on the underside of the CPU! Very nice!

    I also already got my new board, and 16 gigs of Corsair Vengeance 1866 ram, which I am going to under clock to 1600 and tighten up the timings on. Stock 9-10-9-27, I bet with a slight V increase I can drop it to 8-9-8-24.

    I'm buying my CPU the 1155 i5 3570k on the first when I get paid and then I'll drop it all in and get my two ssds in raid 0 and see how much of an improvement my GPU takes to the new system. Although in Feb I'll probably replace it (done a lot of research) with a EVGA GTX 670 FTW.

    ANYWAYS! lol

    Anybody still planning on stopping by tomorrow despite the weather?
