WTB: cheap beginner acros

thegrilledcheesus · May 3, 2013

I want the relatively "easier" acros, my one has done well, and I'd like to try more, colors of yellow, purple, and blue appreciated.

Also does someone have a lawnmower blenny I could buy, I've grown to love those guys.

What do you consider cheap? And also, what kind of acro do you have? The only easy acro IMO is a green slimer

thegrilledcheesus · May 3, 2013

I have what i've come to identify as either a tricolor or a wild one, and below 30 for a frag

Dowtish · May 3, 2013

Well if you are having success with a tricolor, you could probably do okay with quite a few different type acros.

I attribute it, to my twice weekly water changes, so what do you recommend?

Um... I cannot keep this one, but you should see my acro cerealis and the other ones that I cant even name..

stags are pretty easy too..

I had some green slimer encrusted on a rock, when I had to break it off when I had AEFW, I took the rock out and dremeled off the encrusted part off the rock, or so I thought...

The rock was out of the water for at least an hour, then when I put it back in, I saw that I missed a tiny spot, so I put the rock in the QT and turned upside down so the part I missed would die off, didnt want any food for the AEFW. Well after putting the rock back into the display after it was like that for 9 weeks, the tiny spot that I missed has started to turn bright green, there are 15 polyps and a little branch is sprouting out.

Its amazing how fast we can kill a coral sometimes, and then you see just how resilient something like an acro can be.

Woodard I googled that one a bit, and i'm not sure if I'm up for that one, it seems difficult

Ok but if you go by online sources then you will never know if you can keep something just because they say something is hard to keep does not mean it will be hard to keep for you

I know what you mean man, I don't understand how I can kill zoos, and toadstools, arguably the two easiest coral, and then my SPS flourish, the tricolor's base has encrusted onto the rock, and is growing a cm a week, the monti has extended a full inch all around, the birdsnest has growth all around, and the stylo has colored up after 2 weeks. I just don't get it, but I'm not complainin.

I've got this guy....no clue what it is. But it grows! I can frag it if you wanted some of it.

Picture 1 is from Feb. Picture 2 is from 4/21. I'll see if I can get a better pic before the lights go out.
