Duncan Donation from Roe's Marine World

[jessiesgrrl]

Hey guys! I just wanted to let you guys know that Roe's Marine World (www.roesmarineworld.com) has donated two seperate polyps of Duncans to our frag auction in January. I got them this morning, and they are gorgeous!!!!!! They are about 2/3 open now- I will postpics tonight when they are fully open.

Wooohooo!

They are freaking cool, in my humble estimation.They look like Palythoa (The middle size zoanthid) but they have a calcium skeleton instead of being softies.

They are almost all the way open... I have the camera at the ready!!!

These are the Duncans! Theya re even more beautiful than on his website, and imo, WELL WORTH the money I paid for my polyp!!! I am not usually one that buys per polyp items- I wait to trade for frags. But these are so awesome, I couldn't help it. They are lavendar, pink, and yellow. I tried my best in these shots to get the color:

I also got an acan frag, a metallic torch frag, and a neon green favia frag... <grin> Had to make shipping worth it!!

And I got this one from Ellsworth (Alex's store) for my upcoming birthday. It's a montipora that was bleached pretty badly- was brown when Alex got it in but it is now showing some green shading:

Here's an updated shot. When fully extended, the polyp wind sup being about the size of a nickel.

Nice looking polyps!

I am really interested to see what the growth rate will be since they aren't softy like regular zoas...
