Hello Everybody!

Need some casholla for some equipment for a long standing upgrade. These packs will be sent out on Wednesday (unless you request a later date). These will be triple bagged with styro container, peanut filler, and heat pack where neccessary. Most of the acans/micros have baby polyps on the sides :smile:.

Please pm me with any question you might have. Feel free to check my feedback also.

p.s. I have been known to throw a freebie in, so let me know if there are any types of coral you hate or love (sps, zoa, whatever)

Micros and Acans!!!!!! $450 Shipped (I like exclamation points...don't ask):tongue:

Thank you Ryan, I have always had an affinity for acans and do my best to keep them healthy and colored up (not always the easiest thing in the world).

lighting seems pretty blue in pics. Any pics of acans with more of a 10k -14k feeling
 
Do you have any names for the 2nd from the top left and the bottom left? I really REALLY like those and just REALLY like the others :P. Just put an acan in a week ago though so don't want to drop a bunch of cash on these pretty ones now and potentially kill them.

I am terrible at taking pictures and haven't figured out proper white balance on my camera and the photo editing software (Picassa) I am using. I fixed them to as close as I could get them to being true to the eye, but honestly these look even better to the eye. I keep my acans and chalices under 50/50 T5 lighting, they don't grow quite as fast but I prefer the coloration over growth (they do still grow though). I probably have some older white bulbs somewhere lying around that I could try and take a pic with if you are really interested.

where are you located?

2nd from the top left is one that I picked up from a lfs (they got it from a strictly Aussie wholesaler), it's probably one of the best looking rainbows I have seen in awhile and the picture really doesn't do it justice. The bottom left is what I call "Martian Manhunter"; it is a Micromussa (from Kick-***) and the pic doesn't show it that well but the center eye is fluorescent green (looks a little white-ish in the picture).

*Also please note that while you can't tell it from the picture (because I am a terrible photographer/editor); the top right acan actually has a pink center. Not exceedingly rare as far as acans but definitely rarer than the red/red that the picture makes it look like. I have a friend that is going to show me the ropes on a new photo editing software (NX2) that might make some more accurate pics but I can tell you now that the acans/micros will look better, not worse with the white balance adjusted.
 
Thanks! Looks like I'm just going to have to keep my eyes peeled! Good luck with the sale!

So a good friend of mine (Rob D.) showed me how to fix the white balance on these pics. They still aren't perfect but they are a little better. The WYSIWYG acan pack is still sold but I can cut another one if someone is interested.

Now if I can just get some vendors to use white balance properly:jaw:
 
Thanks brother! You know, I can still cut another pack... :)
