$110 Scolly + Impulse Dusters!

[Mitchell0605]

Hey Guys,
Anyone who was tagging along on my upgrade thread (in my sig) would know I was getting a new Scollymia Australis for $110 AUD. I picked it up this weekend and brought him home. Worth every cent. Plus while at the fantastic not-so-local LFS Mum (who loves her featherdusters (calls them Xmas trees)) saw a rock with 3 big ones and around 10 small ones on it for $45 AUD. So she bought it.

I'm being kicked off the computer so pics later!

Sounds like great pick ups.

Now you can tell her that you need a bigger tank.

Great additions. Post those pics so we can all see those wonderful dusters. Oh, and the Scollymia <g>.

Here they are!

Scolly:

At night with feeder tentacles. (This is it's first night so it's healthy!)

Dusters

I know it's dark, I took it with the lights off. Only one I could get with the three big ones.

 

[thincat]

They're called "Christmas Tree" Dusters. I guess because they are so colorful.
Tell your Mom...Nice pick...

 

[Zer0]

Nice pick ups dude.

 

[Aquarium1]

Sweetness!

 

[Mitchell0605]

Yeah thats what she calls them. Xmas trees. She loves them.

that is a bisma worm rock. it's actually a piece of live coral that the worms grow inside as it grows.

 

[Mitchell0605]

Really? The rock looks pretty dead. Apart from some brown encrusting monti.

 

[mr_X]

it's not supposed to be encrusting monti. you mostly find these worms living in porites.are you sure it's not porites?

 

[Etunes]

Wow, great looking worms.

 

[Mitchell0605]

Ahh yes that is Porites. Thanks Mr X.

 

[dkpate]

Pretty!!!

 

[Bige]

Those xmas worms are huge. At least they look big in pic. The ones I have seen are half that size. Very nice.

 

[Mitchell0605]

Thanks Bige. They are pretty big. Around 1" the biggest are.

 

[Bige]

That is big. I have never seen them that large. I found one as a hitch hiker on a spiney oyter. But it is very small. maybe a 1/4 inch at most. But still a blue xmas worm hitch hicker is cool. I think. What other colors are there? I see blue and white. Do you have any others?

 

[Mitchell0605]

There's a small one with a deep crimson centre. That's all. Most are blue.
