    Everything is doing good. I just moved my rics into one of my display tanks a couple days ago. Man what a difference t5's make! I have a tank with low flow in my bedroom that I usually put my shrooms in for a while to allow them to attach to the substrate, then i just superglue them to my whatever they are going to be permanent on and move them into my display. The zoo's are all doing good. I dont have halides so the colors aren't exactly the same but they are still gorgeous.

    I did dip them in the lugol's mix. I dipped my shrooms as well but really just long enough to rinse them off. No more than 2 minutes; from what I have read shrooms dont do well in the dip. I am all about prevention when it comes to adding any livestock. Better to be safe than sorry. If you get ready to place an order let me know I might want to get a few more and we can just split the shipping. If other people wanted to get in we could just do a group buy so the shipping would be cheaper. We would just need to have someone that would be willing to distribute them to everyone. I really don't have the time. I am sure I could get her to put our names on each bag to make it easier.

    I am going to have to go diving in my tank this weekend as Goliath (my tang in my avatar) has knocked some of them off in the back of the tank where I cant reach them or even see them. He has grown dramatically since the pic was taken. [​IMG] I will try to post some pics this weekend of everything.

    Re: nice zoos!

    I heard those were some really nice "frags", I assume your's were rather large too? haha

    very nice

    Yes, the Texarkana frag seller lined me up with a great specimen, 4 heads with a bunch of little baby stalks growing on the side. These are the first corals I've ever had. I'm not used to dealing with something that stings me while I'm trying to find it a nice home in my aquarium!

    There's more frogspawn for sale in anyone's interested, with Joe making a trip or two to LR in the near future.

    Coral Fanatics...

    These guys appear to be pretty legit for an online seller. I picked up one of their Ricordia 10 packs and was very satisfied with what I received. Lots of colors! It's not a bad deal either because you can get the two day shipping for only $25. Zoa's and Ricordias ship well so the two day wait won't harm them. I picked up some nice Zoas from them too, but I'm still waiting for two of the frags to open up. Guess they are still adjusting to my lighting. They just came in on Thursday.

    glad to hear it jsgates. Post us a pic of your rics. I have never ordered a ric pack so curious what colors you got. One of the cool things about her site is you have 10 days to complete your order so if something cool comes along you can ADD TO CART [​IMG]

    I would really like to trade with you when your colonies start growing and i don't mind if it's only 2 or 3 polyps. I have pinks, greens, browns, purples, yellows, orange bam bams... all kinds of zoas. So just let me know when you are ready... put me down right after Marti for a frag swap. i feed a tiny bit of coral frenzy mixed with just a little bit of the frozen Coral Mix (the frozen green cubes) every night about 30 mins. before lights out. My zoas are growing like weeds. One Side of my 75g is nothing but zoas, mushrooms, and a couple of leathers way up top.
    About the order, if people are wanting to order I don't mind coordinating an order and meeting with people to get their frags. Just let me know.

    Thanks for sharing the pics and the info!

    Pam, I actually have an order going right now. I will probably have it shipped in the next week or so. check out the sold page for some of my goodies. there are some others i had special ordered that aren't on there though. I definetly support the LFS here but for bulk ric's I have to shop online. I will let you know when i am ready to swap out some. Should be soon.
