H@rry's frags for the swap

[H@rry]

Here's what I'll be bringing to the swap. I have several of most of these but I only have a few of several. If you see anything you like and want me to hold for you let me know.

1. Valentine Pocillipora damicornis - Fine delicate growth pattern, colonies are compact clumps - tips turn pink under 10K halides - 1.75 - 2 inch mounted - $10

2. Tri Color Valida - Very thin branches that grow in a cluster. The base color is amber with shades of blue, purple, and pink on the tips. Fast grower for an Acropora. - 1.25 - 1.5 inch mounted - $25

3. ATL Meteor Shower Cyphastrea - Green Base with Orange/Red eyes. The base tends to be either blue or green (or shades of each) depending on the light. For best color keep it out of the brightest light. - 1.75 inch chunck - $25

4. Purple Smoke Montipora capricornis - Very deep purple - 1 - 1.25 inch mounted - $15

5. Pink Lace Bird's Nest - Hot pink thin branches that are tapered to a point - 1.75 - 2 inch mounted - $10

6. ORA Green Birdsnest - Very delicate, thin branches. Yellow/green in coloration with bright neon green polyps - 1.25 - 1.5 inch mounted - $10

7. ORA Hawkins Blue Echinata - The ORA Hawkin’s Blue Echinata exhibits rounded branching growth patterns. This delicate ORA coral displays exquisite sapphire blue polyps. ORA named this coral after Robert Hawkins, a facility manager, who acquired this coral from Germany back in 2006. The Hawkin’s Blue prefers strong lighting provided by Metal Halides and will thrive with strong variable flow. As with most SPS, stable levels of calcium level (400-450) and dKH (8-12 ) should be maintained. - 1 inch mounted - $25

8. Montipora palawanensis - Very bright green with tiny blue polyps under VHO, and 10 or 20K MH. Slow growth rate as a frag, but moderate growth rate when colony is developed. Much thicker laminar plates than Montiporas capricornis. Grows in a near perfectly circular bowl colony when mature. Originally from Warren G, I got it from Greg Hiller in Boston in 2003. I understand Steve Tyree got his from the Boston area in 2004 so I suspect this came from the same piece. - 1.75 - 2 inch - $10

9. Gold Ruffle Tubinaria - The ruffled edges will be yellow, gold, or orange depending on the light. The leaves are fairly thick although this is not a slow grower. - 1.75 inch mounted - $20

10. Purple austere - Blue/purple branches with tiny blue polyps. Very heavy clumping growth pattern with short branches - 1.75 - 2 inch mounted - $30

13. Red Rainbow Staghorn - Shades of red, pink, and green. Fast grower that requires good lighting to maintain colors. Especially vibrant under actinics. - 1.25 - 1.5 inch mounted - $40

18. Cupcake Stylo - Very fine, tight branching structure. Branches are not much bigger than a match stick. Color varies from orange to intense pink depending on light and water quality. - 1.25 - 1.5 inch mounted - $20

19. Snipersps loisettae - This piece is not in very wide distribution because Hugo did not distribute many frags before his tank crash. Very similar to the ultimate stag exhibiting a turquoise body with green corallites under optimum conditions. - 1 - 1.25 inch mounted - $20

24. Ponape Bird Nest - Creamy yellow base with bright pink/purple sharply pointed tips. This one is a show stopper and seems to attain better colors with less light than others. A good choice for T5s. - 1.5 - 1.75 inch mounted - $15

25. Tyree Montipora setosa - This will grow in a combination of forms. The same specimen will often encrust, plate, and branch. Depending on lighting, the color may vary from orange to red to pink.- 1 - 1.5 inch mounted - $50

26. ORA Bird of Paradise - The branches are substantially thicker than most Bird's Nest. Electric yellow with amazing metallic purple polyps. ORA says that they received this coral from a hobbyist in Europe in 2003. - 1.75 - 2 inch mounted - $20

Harry,

Just thought I'd clarify something for you:

13. Red Rainbow Staghorn - Shades of red, pink, and green. Fast grower that requires good lighting to maintain colors. Especially vibrant under actinics. - 1.25 - 1.5 inch mounted - $40

This is actually a red staghorn from a store called Rainbow Corals in Portland which has issued a few famous OG corals in the past. Not sure if they're still in business or not but that particular coral is quite hard to find. You've done an amazing job with it BTW.

Dave
