[sps4mytank]

Alright guys...came accross some winnings this weekend and I thought it was best I re-invest in some corals take a gander at these:

Sambucca

Scorpion

Bahamma Mamma

Frag of the Neopolitan

Frag of the Moulin rouge

I have been getting these pieces for great prices too.

Looks alot like the work of Jendub. I have seen corals like these before. Bunch of great stuff newly posted, favias and a few really sweet mycediums too.

 

[Sheol]

Yeah. Well, I just wish I could get better pictures! I don't think my Favia are UGLY, but no one has said zip about them. I guess I have a lot to learn about digital photography!
Any advice is still welcome, ya know!

Sheol. You Favia look great. Just one of the challenges you'll have to face with a bowfront tank is the blur. I had that with my 72 as well. Takes some practice to get the pictures clear so everyone else can see the nice pieces you have there.

New Frags

New Frags

Excuse the pics as I couldn't get a good angle on them. Just got them today and were in the tank for about an hour.

Baby's Breath

Dragon's Breath

Minty Fresh Favites

I'm sure I paid too much but seeing the pictures on here FORCED me to make a purchase.

Hopefully they'll all do well for me.

You didnt pay too much..................and if you did who cares! LOL! They are very nice btw.

 

[bkelley02]

That's the way I feel too. I just don't think my wife would share in that sentiment.

I wish I could catch the colors of that last one better. Be curious to see what it looks like in a few days, and thanks. They're just babies but I like em!

 

[kev apsley]

where did you get those tasty, gorgeous, beautiful, awesome, frags from BKelley? if you don't mind me asking? Because that's the first time I have seen the dragons breath as far as I am aware of, so now it's a must have for me, yes people another must have for me!

 

[kev apsley]

yeah, that last one looks like Favites Pentagona, its a real beauty!

cool! I have purchased quality stuff from them before!

 

[bkelley02]

THey were very generous with the size frag of the Dragon's Breath as I got about 3 polyps and only bought one.

 

[sps4mytank]

Thanks for the comments guys.

j-dub is where my gems are coming from

 

[Sheol]

Thanks Guy! Its nice knowing I'm not the only one. Yeah, that curvature really does distort the image. Also, my hands get the bloody shakes every now & then ( especially with a camera in "em!). I believe its from my meds ( For CD & Osteoarthritis..)
But even when I seem to get good shots, I often end up with pictures very dark. That is why the Mint Chocolate Favia hasn't made an appearance. I have a good pic of my Platy(?) too but its lost in my PC.
Anyway, those are awesome frags! How much did that Baby's breath set you bacK? And that may very well be the most BEAUTIFUL Favites **EVER** seen here on this thread.
SPS4mytank: J-dub eh? I'll have to look into that.

Check out Sponge Bob!

 

[Flavum]

very nice baby's breath and dragons'. so you only bought the 1 polyp and he gave you 3? thats awesome. Im going to try and do an order from them soon.

 

[roblack]

Hey Jose, that Sponge Bob looks familiar. NICE! I think part of him is in my main tank. So that's the name? Sweet pickups BKelley! My Minty Fresh favites was much smaller than that, but they gave me a nice minicolony (13 polyps) as a frag of Jester Acan, so I'm very happy. Waiting for Jack's favia to grow out a little for me so I can get a nice shot. Colors are similar to that PPE chalice thing.
