how did you get such clean pictures of your rics?

 

[juniormc8704]

I believe I used my top down box for all of those if memory serves me correctly.

The collection is from various places, ive just been very particular when selecting pieces. Always making sure they are the brightest of each color morph.

Those above are from Tropicorium, Cherry Corals, and a local reefer here in michigan.

These are my rainbows and the coolest color combination I cant seem to get a good daylight photo that will show it's true colors so here they are under actinics

a couple from my nano. I typically only leave them in my nano until they have enough substrate attached to superglue down before I move them into my big tank. I had a heater fail last year and cooked about $800 bucks worth of coral in it last year, mainly rics.

not a ric but I love my purple yuma

 

[despot101]

It's a poor picture and they are not open all the way (as I had just put them in the tank). But here's what I have.

[tangobc29]

thanks for sharing..that's a masterpiece... how much flow is going through that area?

 

[despot101]

Updated pics of my little collection. Moved them up from the grow-out into the main tank.

I had a heater fail last year and cooked about $800 bucks worth of coral in it last year, mainly rics.

I have nightmares about that happening, what kind of heater was this? I use ebo/jager and have never had any problems.

 

[tangafish]

I dont remember the brand, it was a cheap wal-mart heater though. I replaced all mine with titanium heaters to prevent that. The saddest part is a had a pair of yellow clown gobies(sony and cher) I had about 4 years that I moved from another tank and had just put them in the nano 2 days before the heater went out.

 

[gutter]

yeah I had a cheap heater in my first freshwater tank, you had to turn it on and off yourself...needless to say, I forgot to turn it off a couple of times and the tank got a tad hot

 

[Dave Harms]

Beautiful rics everyone!

 

[tangafish]

Just ordered me more rics so will have some new pics to post soon

 

[macclellan]

New Rics here:

 

[tangafish]

ooohhh laa laa. Me wants!!! those are niice where did you get yours?

 

[macclellan]

I got an 11 pack from Coralmorphologic + the pink WYSIWYG and also got a 11 pack for $60 + shipping on ebay which were not as nice of course, but definitely worth the $. I highly recommend Coralmorphologic - not super-responsive to email queries but very nice rics and such.
