:crossedlips: Whoa. Where'd you buy from? Maybe it doesn't look as good in the picture, but I sure wouldn't pay that much.

Weeeeeeeeeee... I want to cut these into pieces already.

 

[NaClCrocodile]

Think they'd survive? I'm chicken. I've had some since Feb and haven't taken the knife to 'em. One REALLY needs it, it's almost 5" when expanded.

I've fragged so many nems I ain't trippin.. I could cut both of them tonight a few times and sleep nooo problem.

 

[clowns101]

There are 2 kinds.....mini carpet anemones and Maxi minis......Maxi minis atleast with the one I had never reproduced over the year or more I had it, it also opened up to 8" across. The mini carpet anemone don't get bigger then an inch or inch and half.......The ones you see that are more expensive are the Maxi minis......They are much, much larger then the minis......

I am very aware of this,but we can still propagate them.

Exactly what I plan on doing with these nems. I'll slap my name in front of them and drop the price to a dollar... Non-LE nems... Unlimited Edition.. lmfaoo

Seriously tho, I want 5 grand a piece.

 

[NaClCrocodile]

I agree. Propagation is the key. The prices are very high for something that you can frag down the middle (or five ways to sunday if you're Kraylen) and double your stock.

If/when I frag, they'll be 1/2 of what I paid. They're just too expensive for most people to pay.

Yep.. I mean, cover your costs and time.. but don't try to get rims for your Corvette....

5 grand aint bad...lol...I was thinking like 7 grand becasue it had Kraylens name on it.If it didnt have Kray's I wouldnt think of dropping 12 grand on one....I would just stach it up and not think twice!

I wish that were true.

 

[NaClCrocodile]

So I says to myself:
"Self, you should get these off of that dumb rock so you can frag them easier"
"Good idea you handsome devil, you"

[NaClCrocodile]

Thanks! She's my baby, that's for sure.

 

[Azurel]

If you ever get one to sell of that pink one please let me know....There is just something about pink in corals and inverts that attracts me. I really like that pink one....

 

[NaClCrocodile]

Will do. She's pretty popular. I want to start getting clones. Kraylen, convince me to shred them up...

 

[inactive]

Cut some up for me

 

[NaClCrocodile]

Tomorrow is the big day. Any working links as to how to go about this? I know, I know, cut it down the middle, what about having it out of the tank - in it's own bin or what?

Just like a ricordea man... iodine dip after...
