| Re: My 90g setup (pics) If you check out gm's growth pics thread http://www.fishtankforums.com/23-sal...th-pics-2.html (Growth pics) I posted a pic of it shortly after I got it (10/31) and another one from a couple of weeks ago.
I'll definately have to post this one on there in a few weeks/months if it does well.

| Re: My 90g setup (pics) I went to the lfs to buy this plate coral today...that is until I found out they wanted $80-minus the 20% discount I get at that store.
I was also thinking about this brain which was also $80 (minus discount)...needless to say I unfortunately had to pass on both for now. They also had the most amazing sps I have ever seen...which I wish I was able to keep.

| Re: My 90g setup (pics) Why is the plate coral so expensive there? Here it is only $15.00 for a fair size.

| Re: My 90g setup (pics) I picked up a pair of percula clownfish today. They seem to be settling in fairly well, although my coral beauty is still occasionally herding them around showing them who's boss. The tang is being nice and ignoring them.

| Re: My 90g setup (pics) I haven't been on this thread in a while and it seems a few posts have been deleted since. I have added a royal gramma and lyretail anthias and posted it but oh well.
Anyways, I'm going to be like a kid in a candy store tomorrow. I'm going over to a guy in my local reef club's house to pick up some ricordia. He has orange, yellow, blue, and green all for $5 a polyp. Not sure what I'm going to bring home yet, I'll let you all know though. WOW THAT'S SO CHEAP!!!

| Re: My 90g setup (pics) I am sssssssssooooooooo jealous on those Ricordea's....
Mine didn't fare so well. I don't know if it was my bright lights, because they were in a tank with only T-5's at my lfs. It could be that the same day I went in there, they got their shipment earlier and had it already acclimated to thier tanks and then I took it home a re acclimated. Might have been too much...
Anyways, I really liked them for the week I had them.  I will try soon again to find some more. I really like the orange ones!
Get some pictures up here!
I scroll up and see posts from earlier in the year! lol Get blogging!

| Re: My 90g setup (pics) Well he was pretty much picked clean by the time I got there. He started with about 50 polyps to choose from and there were about 15 when I got there. I ended up getting two orange poyps and a green. They were the only ones that looked nice and bright, although the'ye kind of small. I guess you can't beat $10 for them all, here's a pic.
