Got this new foxtail coral, wondering if somebody have any good pictures

[Mark9]

Was at my lfs last night, has a fox for sale, $60.
Was U shaped, half looked good, half looked bad, so I passed.
Now I'm thinking I should have offered $30 for the good half and have him split it.

So, went back, he cut it, got 1/2 for $30.
Then there was confusion as to which was the good side after it retracted, so he just gave me both pieces.
Only been in the tank for 15 minutes, not that happy, yet.
Also picked up a clam.

Nice side

Bad side.

Bad side doesn't look that bad, scoly is looking way better, my conch did the same to a fungia

Right now

 

[Dkuhlmann]

That is a hell of a deal, nice looking piece.

You and Miguel both have me wanting a Fox now.

 

[Mark9]

Miguel's is awesome, mine is ok.

 

[Dkuhlmann]

Great so now I've got to go find a Great one? My next show piece will be an Elegance!

 

[Miguelh1302]

I want an elegance and a bubble, but have to upgrade, hopefully getting a 120 gal next year after I come back from Italy

Thanks, getting better daily.
Moved it on a rock, safe now.
My conch also got my fungia the other day, can't fix that.

 

[Dkuhlmann]

I'd send that conch to the sump and get a couple of Tonga Nassarius snails. Or trade it in on them.

 

[Miguelh1302]

Lmao, this conches does tremendous hard work, mine I found it at the beach and was one of the first in the tank

+1, keeps my sand spotless, both tanks have 1.

 

[Dkuhlmann]

I have thought about getting one but they're very large from what I've heard.

 

[Miguelh1302]

The one that o have is not that large, can you guys recommend me a good sand sifter, my sand is driving me crazy

 

[Dkuhlmann]

Yeah there's a guy in the Newbie or Reef forum that has several videos. It's called something sand sifter. Can't remember what the something is but it has to do with energetic or something like that.

 

[Miguelh1302]

Ok will look it up now

 

[Mark9]

Foxes have settled in.

Good one, obviously too much flow, am going to move.

Bad one, not so bad now.

 

[Miguelh1302]

See I told u it was gonna recover, I took a couple of pictures of mine today

 

[Mark9]

Moved, looking better.

 

[Miguelh1302]

Way better

 

[Mark9]

I wasn't happy with the placement, moved it one again.
Got it right this time.

 

[Miguelh1302]
