[FunGuy]

Nice. Quite a mix of new stuff.

 

[650-IS350]

How about dem PPE's FUNGUY? when do you think I could get a piece of 2..

 

[FunGuy]

Well, I bought some from coralfarm123 a long time ago, but they might not be the real thing. Some develop white speckles and they grow slow as heck. I don't spot feed though. Anyhow, not sure if they're fraggable or real You still interested? hehe. I don't think they're as nice as people say. It looks great under actinic though, but don't most coral?

 

[650-IS350]

Got pics of them???

 

[nasotang]

yeah I got some from coralfarm123 awhile back too and I don't think they are Blane's PPEs. I saw some at reefready and they look different then the ones I got. Unfortunately I lost mine during a tank move.

How many did you start out with and how many are there now?

 

[Elite]

They are not real.. I have some too.. If you want to buy, lmk ..

 

[650-IS350]

Im looking for the Blane Perun ones...

 

[nasotang]

lol...how many of us bay area guys bought some of those.

 

[650-IS350]

I guess the conselation is that you don't have to feel bad as much since you aren't the lone person who bought it.. but hey if it looks good it dampens the pain a bit EH?

 

[Elite]

I have only one real polyp of PPE

nasotang,
I didn't buy from him. I got from Funguy ..

So yours might not be real either ????

 

[Elite]

I know it's not real. The real one I got from reefready

Here is the pic of the fake one . I hate those damn algae growing on the rock but I can't find anything that eat them.
With flash and without.

 

[650-IS350]

HMM. to me they still look nice though... Did you guys pay PPE prices for those?

Your true one hasn't sprouted babies yet?

 

[Elite]

I got the real one not long ago from Matt. It will take a while to grow ..

So you want to buy the fake one from me??

 

[Ti]

[650-IS350]

Thanks Kev, I think there Radioactive Dragon eyes.. I'll see ya in a bit, got to go to a all hands meeting before I head over there.

 

[FunGuy]

Hey Elite, can you post a picture of the real one under regular and actinic light? Wonder how much more purple it looks.

 

[nasotang]

yeah I had the non "Blanes" PPEs, but they look similar.

Hey Elite the Red algae you have on the rock is red turf algae. I was just reading a thread about them. They're really hard to remove and is believed to like real clean water (so increasing skimming,water changes don't seem to help). I had them on some rock before I switched tanks and removed those pieces. They'll spread pretty quickly if you don't have urchins, tangs or something that'll eat them.
