I'm sorry to hear that, Eric. I know you have some very nice corals!

Don't worry about it Eric, I will be in LA this weekend picking up my new tank.

Doh! At the top of my list was to look for corals from Mark09. Now what am I going to do?

If it will make you feel better I will pack up a couple frags of green star polyps and put Marko9 on them....

Just kidding, too bad Marko, had a nice talk with you in Dixon. And always watch for your stuff on the table.

All the way to LA for a new tank? Sounds like you have something nice in the works.

I started my thread about 6 weeks ago and I can only hope it comes out close to what it looks like in my mind.

 

[Ebn]

Very nice. Can't wait to see what you end up with.

Is Pink Jade considered rare? Got this piece at the BAR frag swap last Feburary as a 1 inch frag .

How about this Acan?

Also, can we submit 1 rare and 5 ordinaries and qualify for the bonus round? And were Cat's Eyes zoos considered rares?

The acan is in for sure. The cat's eyes are in but on a 5-6 polyp basis.

Pink Jade is a good one as well.

What about 1 rare and 5 ordinaries in lieu of 2 rare or 10 ord?

Posting this for a friend. He has this favia from Karson from aquaticcollection.com
It looks similar to the tyree war coral but it is actually brighter and have bigger green centers than the war coral. Several weeks ago a single polyp sold on ebay for 70+ dollars. Would this be considered rare and if so at how many polyps?

It looks good to me. 2 polyps and it is in.

That should work just fine.

All - Please have your pictures loaded by about midday today for assessment. This afternoon I will need to print out all this stuff and reconcile the list for tomorrow, so please be kind and get them in ASAP!

Wooo hoo! In about 24 hours, geek heaven!
