this isn't mine but it makes my head spin so i thought i would post it.....

THIS IS BY FAR MY FAVORITE ON THIS ENTIRE THREAD !!!

What size frag would be sent out on a piece like this, and roughly how much was it on those sites mentioned ???

 

[acropora213]

Daddy Jax , I am certainly still getting that other frag from you that was offered to me. Thanks ~ Tony

 

[J4Life]

Who is willing to donate frags to a worthy home? I love them all.

I will post a couple of mine when I get a updated picture. I have a red, green, orange monti caps.

Thanks,
Bill

acropora213 -

that verrucosa was 5" - $150

 

[DaddyJax]

Acropora213, you will never guess what else I have in my tank!


hint, you just copied and posted a pic of it!!! hehe!

 

[acropora213]

JASON !!! GET OUT ! Your kidding right ...lol

Freakin awesome... I gotta check that out soon.
I'll just stick a picture to an appropriate spot on the glass of my tank and live vicariously through you...lol

btw jay , whats the size of the "Other" frag you have for me ??
Don't wanna name species, cuz folks will get all excited and such.

But in that case I could have just PM'd you about it .... silly huh

 

[acropora213]

Does the Verrucosa grow in certain patterns under certain conditions ??? Is it Encrusting, plating, or something totally different.

 

[cwegescheide]

Hey DaddyJax.. Does your Monti actually look like the picture?? I tell you I really think that somebody at reefermadness really knows their photography tricks. I've ordered several corals from them and lets just say I was wondering if there was some kind of a mixup because they didn't look anywhere near the picture. Even if I had the identical lighting..

That is one awesome piece for sure. So are you inviting me over????? I'll bring some good beer!!

 

[DaddyJax]

You see my avatar!! It looks like the pic but by no means does it comapare in size. I have seen the same or something very similar by
Tubs. Mine is only like 1 1/2" square right now so I am not sure of the growth pattern. But the colors are the same!
The "Other" frag is also 1 1/2" square.

Shoot me a pm and we can set a meeting up!

 

[parothead22]

Best places to get rare/hard to find Montipora's and Acropora's are REEFermadness.com, SPStoner.com(Exotic reef), Reefexotics.com, extremecorals.com and Atlantisaquarium.net!

 

[SERVO]

Plus you never really have to worry about AEFW's

I would love to start an all monti tank without Digi's or Caps.

 

[wentreefgirl]

Would wipe out your whole tank if you got monti eating nudis though.

 

[Shawnts106]

yeah.. thats not good!

 

[parothead22]

I would love to have a tank filled with Montipora Denae, Undulata, Nodosa Palawanensis, Informis and Monasteriata!!!!!!A few Digitata's and Capricornis' are ok but it seems that every store carries them and the aren't any where as nice as some of the other Monti"s.
Yellow with blue polyps, blue/purple with red polyps, green with blue polyps, rainbow colored polyps, yellow with pink polyps...the list goes on and on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Shawnts106]

Parrothead, step away form the espresso machine.... and put down the cup.... because you have drank WAYYY TO MUCH tonight!




lol, yeah, LFS need to carry more Montipora species... I work at one and we are trying to get new and more exciteing things in, possibly moving to a bigger place,

but I am on the lookout for monti danaes and whatnot to frag...

 

[ReeferMadnessUS]

cwegescheide,

I do not want to Hijack this thread but I want to find out what went wrong with the Montipora's that you received? Have you notified us so that we can help you out? I would really like to hear from you so that we can make it right. I hate to hear about folks unhappy with our animals that we send out. We aren't perfect and I always want to try harder to get a little closer to perfect. But I can't help unless you give us the chance to help....

Gorgeous Montipora's everyone... I'm sorry about butting in...

Chris @ RM
