Nice pic Mark, Bob does have a nice chalice collection.

Thanks Brian, I think you have seen that one before :p
Like I've told you before, sometimes this hobby is unfair because there are so many great people I would like to meet and greet with, but due to the fact that we are all so spaced it, it's highly unlikely that we ever will. Bob is one of those people who I would love to have a sit down with :)

So true, I have been lucky enough to have meant Bob on several occasion. One of the good guy's in my book.
 
I wonder what goodies you got above, Mark :)

Thanks Roy. Too bad the scheduling did not work out this time, but I guess that means I will just have to come down again :)

I picked up a piece of the aussie speciosa that Robert sent the pictures about last time, a piece of an aussie aculeus like the one from DD that my buddy picked up, a piece of blue tenius that has a green sheen to the base and cool deswali frag. From OT, I picked up a granny frag and a different looking favia chunk. And then just a couple other pieces from Bryan and Ian. All in all, some nice booty for this coral pirate :lol:

Dang Mark, do you have any space left to put these treasures?

Absolutely not, but I just can't stop. I got it bad: Pookie from New Jack City has got nothing on me.

Its always good to bring home new goodies as I go through stages of liking and disliking corals. I have been debating replacing my shallow tank with another system :eek:
 
Congrats on the GBD Video! I Love that site.

And your chalices are looking great and gettin big. I wish I could keep mine in my Display, as I think they would do a lot better!!!

I want to see that Desawali when you get it settled. I have been on the lookout for a long time for a nice piece that makes it. I had a very large colony that did the notorious large colony RTN on me over a year ago that i still miss....

Thanks Ryan. Why can't you keep them in your tank again? What fish was it?

The deswali is just a frag and it will be in the shallow tank for at least 4 weeks for QT.

Aahhh... so true, so true! The wife really gets on to me about my fixation on continually buying stuff for the tank and not just leaving well enough alone. I can't bring myself to tell her that I'll probably never stop, lol! :spin2:

Mark, did you end up getting some A.deswali recently? I thought you didn't have any???

I was fortunate enough to find a local guy with a real good rep for SPS who I got a piece of the Crayola Plana from. He also has the A. deswali and offered to set me up with a piece! I'm soooo happy about this score! I've been hunting for these two pieces for ages and now they just seem to have fell in my lap!

I actually "won" the Crayola in an auction held locally for $17.00! It's a pretty decent size piece and should do well. The guy told me it's a slow grower though... :hmm2:
