[cobra9]

[Nanook]

Looks like his tricolor

That would be my guess, but I'm hoping for something else since I already have tircolor.

 

[Reeferhead]

Yeah, its the Vivid Aquariums Tricolor. Its encrusted all over my frag rack.

I'll get the official starting pics posted in the next couple days

 

[smoothdog]

Looks very similar to my garf bonsai. I'll have to keep track of what is what if it grows out for me.

 

[Nanook]

Anyone else get a bonus mystery frag with their contest coral?

Your frag is at least 5x larger than the one I got, but I am still going to win this thing:bounce1:

Love the smack talk so far! Also I forgot to mention but let try to keep the frags on the tiles they came on. Since the tiles are all the same size it will help us gauge growth.

Too late Whenever I dip corals, I always remove them from the rock or tile they are on....less chance of getting pests and I don't like the look of tiles in my display.

Here's the first one we did. Its worth a browse if you're thinking of starting your own. There are no "official" SLASH rules for these contests. If you're donating the corals you can do whatever you like.
