Well i have good and bad news to report the leopard wrasse did not make it the yellow wrasse had really beat it up i waited too long taking it out totally my fault i am really depressed about it.

the good News is that Jeremy (Tuberider) sent me a nice pack of frags. Jeremy is a Member of The Bay area Reef club BAR and they do a really cool thing called DBTC or Dont Break The Chain, And basically it is a way of backing up your corals by trading frags with other reefers and also a way to spread some love and help others diversify their tank.
Here are a some pictures of the corals he sent they all arrived safe and happy.
Thank you very Much Jeremy i hope in a few months i can return the favor.

sorry about your wrasse, but your corals are looking awesome

 

[Slakker]

Corals look awesome! I love the "back up" concept, that's a great idea. I don't know why it didn't occur to me before...working in software development I've pretty much trained myself to back up any and everything possible, but never even thought of corals.

My reef club had a frag "pay it forward" kind of thing going on for a while. Someone would post a frag that they were willing to give up, with the expectation that the recipient would not only give out a frag of their own, but when the coral they had received had grown enough to be fragged again they would pass another frag of it on to another reefer.

It was a really cool idea, until it got really complicated with a bunch of rules and stuff. Seems people didn't like getting mushrooms or xenia after putting an acan frag into the mix. Understandable, but not quite in the spirit of things.

thanks man, hopefully they all grow and i can put a "backup copy" of each in your tank.

i was there yesterday but not sure what you wanted and i was worried about your salinity. Well next time your up there pick out something and i will pay for it.

Ok, my salinity is getting close to where it should be... i am about at 1.024 now. i am creeping up on the 35 ppt.

I really like the Plum Crazy, when i was there last Dan had 2 of them. Next time i take a ride out there i will let you know.
