[BL1]

Thanks reeffreak and pwny! I actually got all of these frags from Mr. Coral ... You should check them out, they usually have fire and ices in stock. If not, I could always try my hand at fragging lol

I finally have a pic, I wanna play....I dont have dates but i think you can see the growth...i did have issues finding the best spot for him but i think i finally found it.

I think the pix are about 2 months apart or so...

 

[BL1]

That's some good growth Dana!

Here's one more. Started out as two small mushrooms. It's now 4 mushrooms and each one is about twice the size of that original rock they're on

Those are the hairy mushrooms I have, Brian. There will be thousands before you know it!

I know, It's only softies (besides that candy cane coral) in my nano cube anyway now. Plus the female clown LOVES it. When she hosts it, she just literally lays sideways against it and doesn't move at all. I really want to get a pic of it but, any time I even move in the room she gets up and swims to the top of the tank for food.

That is some amazing growth. Don't you just love the growing of calcium and coral tissue?

Here is my time lapse

Green Zoas

Eagle Eyes

Fire and Ice

my god i love these 2 last pics, what are the name of the zoas.. they r really red/orange. beautiful

 

[Bifferwine]

Those are fire and ice zoas. They grow really fast. I have a couple different types in my tank. They can be expensive (per polyp) to buy at first, at least my LFS. But you only need a few polyps to turn into a whole rock in no time.

 

[BL1]

Biff's right, they're Fire and Ice zoas, the pic ture on the left is what they look like when I got them. I only paid $10 for that frag from MrCoral.com

I only paid $10 for that frag from MrCoral.com

You lucky duck, fire and ice zoas go for $10/polyp at my LFS.

That's crazy, I probably wouldn't have those if they were that expensive.
