5.5 Gallon

OK, I know I said this wasn't going to be set up soon but I can't wait. This didn't seem like a bad little frag pack. Maybe a little pricey but I want something fast. Ebay Link.

That's funny I looked at the same thing earlier tonight

 

[showjyr]

Do you think it's too much?

 

[chrissaysyes]

not really, depends on what you end up with

 

[SkiFletch]

Not bad. Are you prepared with flatworm exit? After getting a case of sundial snales, my reef will never again see frags NOT diped in FE.

 

[showjyr]

Nope. What does FE kill aside from flatworms an snails?

 

[SkiFletch]

More flatworms and more snails...

Seriously though, it also kills bristleworms which is why I only dip incoming corals in it, then rinse them off once in a seperate tankwater container before putting them in my tank. Try to keep it away from the tank-proper.

Edit: it does kill nudis too

 

[showjyr]

Cool just bought some on Ebay. How long do you dip for?

I'm tempted to just use the "buy it now" option so someone doesn't snag them before I do.

 

[SkiFletch]

10 mins

 

[showjyr]

Ok then, will do.

I am also happy to say that I'm the proud new almost-owner of the frag pack I linked to. $58.01 was the final cost. I had it at $39.95 until someone started bidding against me in the last 10 minutes, but it's mine now.

I'm also bidding on this little Duncan. How much do you think it's worth?

 

[SkiFletch]

Single head? $20 tops

 

[Lynden]

Well of course it's worth what one will pay for it.

 

[showjyr]

Well, I got THIS Duncan for a whopping $17.45. It looks to have 2 maybe 3 heads. I don't have to pay the $20 shipping because it's coming with the zoas. The zoas, duncan, and a couple shrooms are gonna go in this weekend. I might add a nice frag of green nephthea that has two sections, each about 3 inches that I got for free.

 

[SkiFletch]

A Duncan is a Duncan IMO. I've never seen one that didn't have a green center . Color varies depending on light. Feed it a lot and it'll grow like a weed

 

[showjyr]

I just thought I'd give a little update now that this little tank is up and going.

Corals: 6 different zoas, 3 different palys, 1 aussi duncan, 3 kinds of shrooms(one huge 3-4 inch green and white stripe that's hiding)

Inverts: 3 astrea(I don't even clean the glass ), 1 cerith, 1 blue leg hermit, 2 tiny brittle stars, 1 huge(4 to 6 inch) brittle star.

I have thousands upon thousands of pods. Is there any fish small enough to fit in there that would eat a lot of them?

It's not much to look at now but when I get the 29 set up some of the mature rock from my 10 will be going in there along with the 6 pounds or so already in it.
