O lol . Well it never actually opened So hopefully tomorrow I'll come home from work to a nice open gsp frag lol. . Thanks for following though.

Woohoo first coral! Lol looking forward to seeing it. Remember to start the lights out pretty low then slowly bring them up.

 

[Hondatek]

Yea its pretty exciting. I have the lights turned all the way down and placed it on the sand bed. I wish it would have opened up though but I'm trying not to worry about it. I also gave them a list of the anglers I am interested in and they are going to call their suppliers to see what they can get for me.

What exactly is a frag?

 

[Hondatek]

A frag is a small piece of a coral that is cut (fragged ) from a larger piece and glued to a ceramic disc or a small piece of rock..

From what you can tell ? Is that a joke at my cameras horrible picture taking lol just kidding sky. It was nice and full like it was at the Lfs . Thanks for the compliment bean girl. I picked up this shroom last night but it is still all closed up. It was a purple color at the Lfs but has green showing in my tank.

Lol is there a coral in that pic? I kid, I kid! Sounds like a great grab. Mushrooms are easy to multiply so you'll have more in no time.

Well I'm pretty mad right now. Live aquaria has a black angler but I can't order it since I have to work this Saturday and won't be home to get it .

Can you send it to one of the lfs to hold until you can pick it up? The stores here will do that for like $5

 

[Hondatek]

That I'm not sure about. Might be worth a shot . I may just wait though since it's not the one I really really want lol. I know as soon as I would order this one the other would be available.

Curious to see how the turf scrubber works out, tagging in to follow along.

 

[skywhitney]

Well pass it up then. Better off holding out than regretting your purchase.

Very nice. Glad to see our club growing!

 

[Hondatek]

Some more pics . I'm still trying to get the hang of taking then with LEDs.

 

[Hondatek]

I just confirmed that it is indeed an orange/brown painted angler.
