Acropora yongei.....still eludes me...

[Capt_Cully]

Great to see some familiar faces at the swap. Met some new folks, put faces to names.

Anyway, this once very common coral (true green slimer), remains elusive. There are plenty of imposters, but its been a long time since I've seen the real deal.

What gives?

Who's holding!?!

 

[Gary Majchrzak]

sorry man. As luck would have it I was unable to go yesterday.

 

[aaronlp]

Holding!!

 

[Seefour]

What defines a true slimer? I may have one but now I'm not sure...

 

[Capt_Cully]

Most people think they have what I consider the real green slimer A. Yongei, but it ends up just being a green stag that slimes.

The real deal is super hairy, can't see the branches at all when polyps are fully extended.

Real deal

Imposter

 

[Seefour]

Mine is a combo of the two so I'm thinking its not a "true" slimer. Sorry.

 

[Capt_Cully]

Thanks.

Funny thing is, you didn't used to be able to give the stuff away. Now it's gone!

I don't want it anymore......I NEED IT!

:lolspin:

same can be said of orange digi...

I used to throw it away but nowadays hardly anybody has it

 

[Capt_Cully]

I came to see you last time. Come this way and do a tank crawl. You'll leave with tons of free frags and a belly full of beer and venison.

Not a bad deal for the gift of your time and one measly frag.

 

[Eastamherstbias]

I have the impostor.

 

[aaronlp]

[Gary Majchrzak]
