Need More Living Rock

[puffermantis]

I need about 25-30 lbs more LR. I am between Bisbee and Sierra Vista, but would drive up to Tucson if needed.

theres a lot of coralline algae, but i can sell the all of the bucket for like $60

 

[puffermantis]

Can I meet you Friday?

 

[puffermantis]

If you need me to come up sooner, I could come up this afternoon.

 

[ynnhoj86]

Anytime wednesday would work great. Pm me your number and so I can call you and give you my address

 

[puffermantis]

Thanks Johnny. It was worth the 90 mile drive. Also, gas is 34 cents a gallon cheaper there also.( :

your welcome, im sry i couldnt there but im glad you met my roomate. if you had a reef tank my roomate would have frag you a couple of items, he said you didnt. Your just gonna have to set up a reef now. and im sry, i was talking to danny and he said he didnt show you my reef tanks in my room, ill post a picture to show you (those are like my highlights of my tanks) but the lights just turned off so i have to wait till tomorrow.

 

[puffermantis]

Nope, no reef tank yet. I have a bunch of mushrooms and corals growing on the LR I got a couple months ago, but I'm not trying to actually start yet. If you're ever going to sell the tank you emptied, post it here.

I suck at pictures and aquascaping, but here's my first stab at both. My daughter, Catherine, helped with both:

I know I have some algae, but the fish that normally clean it are in the QT and I have about 200 or so snails all over the tank and am waiting fr them to grow and have something to eat. I can't figure out how to get a close-up of it, but on the left lower side of the largest LR on the top, there are about 40 coral polyps and a bunch of what I think are feather dusters.

It's hard to see, but there are 3, what I believe are feather dusters in the middle of the portion of the V.

[puffermantis]

I don't know how to reset the date on my camera.

 

[puffermantis]

OK here's a little better picture of what I am pretty sure is coral polyps:

[ynnhoj86]

those feather dusters are xenia and the polyps are green zoa's. LOOKS GOOD!! soon you'll have coraline algae all over your tank from those rocks

 

[puffermantis]

Something ate the 3 xenias in the picture. It wasn't the two urchins, because I have them in solitary confinement. I just wanted to give a better view of the green zoas and some mushrooms. They are amazing. I guess you did give me some frags after all. ( :
