I stopped by the LFS here in Dalton today...with no intention of buying anything of course...and, as I always do, checked out the WAY overpriced corals they have for sale. I noticed, written on the front of the tank, "Frogspawn $15.99". OK, so I couldn't pass this up. After searching the whole tank, I saw a large chunk of dead LPS skeleton with 2 small heads still hanging on. When I asked the owner about it, he said "Yeah, that one's about dead". He offered it to me for $5.00. "BAG IT!" Anyway, got it home, set up a drip acclimation, and let that run for about 3 hours. After that, I mixed up some Kent Tech D and gave it a 6 minute dip. I also cut off most of the dead skeleton. It's in the 20g right now with poylps extended and looking much happier than it did at the LFS. If anyone has any suggestions for improving its chances, I'd like to hear them. This one, if it lives, will find a permanent home in the 180g at the eyecare center. The two surviving heads are about 3/4" across.
