Tucson Corals - Show Off Thread

Show off your corals, give us a little story about them, where you got them, We want to know! Also let us know if you are willing to frag them to trade.

Well I figure I will start with my brother and my Radioactive Dragon Eye Zoathid Polyps

My brother bought them at SWSW and they have done nothing but grow and grow and grow. 20 new polyps in less than 2 months. He just fragged me a piece with 12 polyps on it and its already happy. Once my tank is coral healthy we will be putting them in. My brother does frag these and is willing to trade.

Very nice zoos. Great growth!

I've had these zoos forever. I picked them up from a shop out of Yuma, that went out of business shortly after I got my order (they couldn't keep up with their orders once they start selling online). Gave a frag to my father-in-law, then my tank crashed. Now I got this frag from my father-in-law's tank.

Those are sweet! Once they grow up I'll have to trade you for a frag of my Radioactive Dragon Eye

 

[sillygoose]

I would love to get frags of either - but I have nothing cool to trade. What's a desirable item to grow and trade? What do people with other really cool things want? I've got a bunch of GSP and kenya tree LOL!

 

[Akimbo]

Well, once my RDE grow and start attaching to the rock and prosper I will be more than willing to trade for just about anything from coral to equipment to LR or fish!

Nice. Those purple/ green palys are freakin sweet.


Here's a nice little frag I picked up from Vivid not too long ago. Hot Tamales

ORA Roscoe's Blue. You can see the other part of it in the background. I was going to cut down the plug when it jumped out of my hand & fraged itself.

And a little frag I picked up from Hector, starting to look real nice.
