Its hard to find a good sized colony of almost anything these days. Sweet polyp though, I picked one up a while ago but it died during shipping. I'll have to try again one of these days.
 
thats stinks gar, thanks everyone. but what is a F crosshatch?

VDM are one of my favorite palys, they get soooo big. I had a mini colony with 30 or so but I lost them to me being Dumas material.
 
For some reason I am not a huge fan of polyps, But the VD is one I really like. If Ievery start a frag tank I want to get one andgrow them out just so I have it.
 
I really dig VDM's. I did own a few but melted a few weeks after I got them :cry: Nice looking patch you have there!
 
im glad im gettin my new LED setup either today or 2morrow because im tired of seeing random selections of my zoas melting away.. but i hope mine dont melt on me anyways.. =/
 
I got mine from LFS. It had 30-40 palys. I got it for $35 for the whole thing I think.
It was doing great, growing well.
I tried fragging 2-3 paly that was easy to frag, but ended up chotting the whole thing into 3-5 paly frags. I guess it didnt like being chopped all at once.
next day when I looked into the tank, 10 plugs with nothing on it but glue with slime.
I think the reason behind it is

1. Wild colony is especially sensitive to tank environment
2. Chopping up the thing was a bad idea.
