cause ya know how when you injure yourself and have a little flap of skin hanging there, so you rip it off? in the coral world, you can grow a whole new coral from that little bit, hence the term "skin flaps" which yes, is a bit creepy when you think of it, but you get a great deal on a smaller bit of coral, which in the end grows to be a big coral so everybody wins!

Christy nailed it pretty good. There is a back story to this but I'm not one to rehash bad blood. I do have to give another vendor credit for passing us the "Skin Flap" idea though.

Default Pics

Hello,

Sorry about the delay in posting these pics but here they are:

But before I do, please note that I will do my best to co-ordinate the colors that you are wanting. Currently, I have a lot of zoos and when I stare into the tank they all look the same yet different. So if you could please order by color from skirt in, this will help my brain immensely.

These are not going to be WYSIWYG and the "Flaps' will be minimum 10+ polyps and are mounted on Zeo Rocks.

Group buys encouraged to help save on shipping.

These Zoos have been acclimatized for a long time now so they will not shrink and die. However, they are very sensitive to cold temps that can be caused during shipping and when they get cold they are susceptible to fungal disease.

So, If you see any white fungus on them let me know ASAP and I will tell you how to treat them using API Furan 2.

LOL, here I always thought it was more a jokey sort of thing

You should see the extreme skin flap I saw on RC the other day, seriously ONE POLYP. It looked like some sort of lokani but I dont' even know how the guy got it glued to the plug, he must have had some ultrafine tweezers or something. I dont' know if he had it for sale but he posted it and a pic of his 6 polyped red planet. Crazy stuff.


Ten polyps isn't a skin flap, its an actual frag

Ive sent Paul a PM with the ones I want.

I will be willing to head up a Victoria group order.. just let Paul know what you want.. pay him and then he can ship me one box and we will split the shipping. Shipping is only $15-20 or Harbour air.. so its little of nothing if we go 4-5 ways. Since they are zoas I can hold them for my up island buds if they want any too.

Just let me know whos in
