Looks nice direct feeding will pop more babys thats the trick
dont tell nobody :tongue:
 
I will be honest in saying I have a newborn son and absolutly can not afford to buy one. I can pay for shipping and will trade whatever I can. But there too I am sure will pose a problem as I only have a few high ended zoa's....I have RPE's, Magicians, Psuedo hornets (AKA fake), Artic ice, a small frag of True Tyree Undata (and I mean small like a dime), a small frag of Superman (again very small)....I might be able to come up with something else. LMK....PLEASE!!!!

I don't know....my mom always said to say please....probably wont help here though.

good question. I saw a colony go for $199 but I dont know how many were there. You can see them at either VividAquariums.com or Cultivatedcorals.com. Cultivated is who had the colony.
 
Looking today back at what my frags were and what they are today (6 months)

wow...thats a lot of ph and king midas..

my ph after i fragged 2 polyps from my 5 polyps it stopped growing for 3 months..
i didnt touch it anymore..then its start growing babies...from 3 polyps now i have close to 30 polyps...
1 frag plug has 4 polyps..another plug has 6-7 polyps and my main colony has 16-18 polyps...counts includes babies..
so in a span of 3-4 months of not touching it...3 polyps went to 30 or so polyps..
 
Yeah I think that's the key - not fragging and just letting them grow. If I frag to soon most zoa's and paly's let me know by slow grow and ill health.

King midas go for around 5 bucks here in FL.
