Thanks Jason

It's 4 months old now, came with rock, False Perc and LTA. Everything else has been added by me.

Dude I'm liking that sea apple!!

 

[padanky]

The Sea Apple has grown another arm since I've gotten it, it's pretty cool.

 

[RR-MAN]

Very nice...looks clean.

Thanks John! like I said before, I just wsh it had a bigger footprint. I've already took about 40lbs of rock out of it, and it still has too much rock.

Looking good. Let us know how that sea apple works out, have been contemplating one for awhile, they look so sweet.

 

[padanky]

Haven't had any problems with the apple at all, it is sweet to watch.

Travis, the GPOB that I got from you is awesome. Great polyp extension.

Can you move that birdnest a little higher (pic 035x)? Not sure if it's recovering or losing tissue. If it's losing tissue, frag it quicky. If you got that from Quoc, I have the same piece. It prefers more light.

I got the Birdsnest from Mike, it was almost 1/3 Bleached. I got some broken pieces from him too, glued them and set it about 3" higher than the one on the sand. By lunch the next day it was pure white bleached, this one seems to be doing good and recovering.

Just went and looked closer at it and the base/ trunk looks to be getting a coating around it, kinda like algae is this what you are talking about? I'll see if I can find a place to move it up to.

 

[RR-MAN]

Go back and see picture 035X.

It's a recovery deal, freebie I got from Mike. It was down laying on the bottom of his tank.
