Acanthastrea at Discount Pet

[Jacob D]

DP has a good sized colony of A. echinata (possibly subechinata). The color is faded and looks like red w/ green mouth and orange w/ green mouth. I think all the coral in that tank is $25 so not a bad price, I'm sure it will color up.

DUDE you should've bought it could've sold it for 8x that.. on ebay

 

[Jacob D]

eh.. I'm not into all that.

=) Could've donated it to the raffle?

I'm out though after next sunday all my tanks will be down and drained=) Cool pond is getting filled in the next month.. To many projects too little time

 

[plankton]

Dan,

But that is what you said the last time you put the hobby on hold? LOL!

We all go through that cycle at one point or another. The longest I've lasted without a tank is 6mo.

Let us know when you get back in again since I'm sure you'll have no trouble finding folks to help restock...

Hey scott thats what i was thinking.

 

[Jacob D]

Nice pond!

Scott this stuff is all over the place, you just need to come to Stockton more often. Twins has a pretty decent sized colony of lords for $35, several wellsi for $25 and some big colonies of merletti (200+ heads) for $35.

 

[plankton]

Sweet. Will have to make a trip to Stockton and check it out...

Which day do they get their livestock shipments in or is that a tightly held secret?

Scott

 

[Jacob D]

Tuesday... but not every tuesday with 'good stuff' which is why you should follow this thread

Right now is a good time.

 

[MrMonkeyFingers]

yeah I was there today and he still had some lords and blastos...

Went to discount pet today (Sunday) and didn't see anything at all. However, Twins has a couple of nice b.welsis and I bought one.

[Jacob D]

Dude! Why didn't you call me? I would have at least drove over to supervise your purchase

Did you see the lords at Twins? They were ok, would color up I'm sure. We could have cruised over to Carter's too, they have all kinds of stuff, but a little more pricey.

Hey did you see the sweet yellow mantis shrimp at Twins?? I almost bought that bad boy... I think I'm breaking down the mantis tank though, not enough time these days and we're bringing Sandra's nano cube home to boot.

 

[MrMonkeyFingers]

how come you guys are bringing it home?
