Any body remember the teeny tiney green Acropora microphthalma colony in the center of my tank from the last ORCA meeting..?
Well here... let me remind you... it's the colony in t he upper center. Approximately three feet across...
Here it is coming out is sections
Hey... who's that guy in the Reef Works T-Shirt ..?
This is one of those huge marine coolers...
Adios old friend...
The circular patterns you see on the glass are where the Micro P. was growing on the glass in large sheets, which ironically came off the glass easily along with the rest of the colony.
Be sure to stop by and visit Chris at Reef Works and ask him how the Weed II is doing ..? He's now the proud owner of the biggest Calcium sponge in history :lol:
Actually, the Micro P. was given to me about three years ago. It was a twig less than 1 centimeter in length... It grows like wild and is one of the hardiest corals I've ever grown. It'll grow under almost any kind of lighting. Under metal halides it'll turn bright green.
So the saga is over... the Weed II is gone... sniff sniff.
On to bigger and more colorful things
