Scott I drool at all the ebay/ instagram photos they have been posting, how difficult was it to get frags off of them?

Also I don't think I saw a rainbow chalice in there, you in the market for one?

They were more than willing to sell them to me :)

I'm always in the market for chalices, just out at work right not to make some money to afford them! Send me pictures of what you're trying to sling.

you were able to order frags from the states?

Scythanith 01-06-2016 02:58 AM

No I was physically in the states and shipped them to myself. I was 100% honest on the declaration as to what it was and after some clarification for the CBSA in Calgary it was sent on to my home.

Just made up a number of frags, I will shoot you a PM when they have developed their new growth rings and we can work something out.

Not so much into selling ;), was looking to get my hands on a space invader frag if it ever went under the snips.

I wanted to frag it once for my friend. But by the time he made it over it had grown down on to the rock beneath it so it wasn't as simple as pulling it out of the rock and putting it under the knife. Now I am waiting for it to grow some larger protrusions that I can clip. The key is to wait until one is big enough that it has a mouth on it. Then I am fairly confident it will grow easily. I tried the theory out with a cheaper pectina and it worked perfectly.

Could be a bit of a wait but I am all over the idea of trading :)

Stoked, let me know!

I'm not sure if pectinas are the same as chalices but it has been amazing to see the effect fragging the colony had. I think the thing that surprised me the most was the rapid development of eyes. Frags which had a single mouth are now developing 5+ with some unreal color change.

Do you target feed the beasty often? Would love to see some feeding tentacles if you ever have the opportunity for a quick photo.

Great build and Pictures.:biggrin:

Scythanith 01-08-2016 03:16 AM

I target feed almost weekly. I scanned my phone and was surprised I didn't have any pictures of the pectina in night mode. I will get one for you when I am home in a couple weeks.

Thanks Alberta Reef :)

How do I embed a youtube video so that it just plays on the thread?
