if nismo posts his cap...I think he'll win. LOL that things like 2.5' x 1.5' x 1'.

Here's mine... untill it broke off while cleaning the glass and the only way I could get it glued back down was to frag it up.

Wow very nice both of you!! Can you estimate the sizes?

 

[benny z]

that pink birdsnest was about the size of a soccer ball in that pic. it got a little bit bigger, then completely bleached from the base up over the course of 3-4 days out of the blue. as a way of "spreading the ashes", it is now broken up inside the calcium reactor feeding the tank. recycling at its best.

btw - it started as a single brach ora frag.

cheers!

mine's about 7" tall but then it got chopped up and is now about 3". I can't wait for it to get bigger again as everyone that came over LOVED that coral. more than my setosa, oregon, ponape, etc etc. LOL just a nice purple/blue tipped stag.

Benny, that thing is HUGE! I can't wait to get a bigger tank so I can let things grow to be that big! I constantly have to prune back so they don't kill eachother!

This welso has been captive for 5+ years. Compare it in size to the regular sized ones next to it as well as the clowns and zoas...
