Check out this cyphastrea colony

mane3215 · 09-10-2005, 09:55 PM

Just got back from the LFS with this little beauty! I think it has some coloring up to do, but I have never seen a colony before. This thing is killer about the size of two golf balls!

Thanks, stay away from Aquarium Center by all means =). The absolute best LFS in Baltimore is Exotic Aquatics! You will love their store!

Dave,
If you do come down let Mark and I know, we'll meet you there!
Nice clean store and they have a great selection of corals to choose from.

We were also thinking of making a trip over to Dr. Mac and sons maybe we could do that also.

Nah they arent, you would just shoot straight down 95, take 695 to towson/timonium, take the perring parkway exit, right on joppa road left at second light, left into shopping center about a 1/4 mile down and boom your there. =). Should be there today! Get to it! hehe.

Woodstock · 09-11-2005, 07:12 PM

Yep, i've not even begun to hop here (fla)

Jendub · 09-11-2005, 10:12 PM

mmmm.....Chris I want a piece of that when you are ready to frag it. I am thinking it won't change colors. I have seen a white and pink cypha just like that one not to long ago. The white turned a yellow/white and the pink turned brighter. Whatever color it turns....I want!!!!

Oh ya?? That would be killer, I like the color it is now, but never seen one like it so I assumed it was bleached. That would kick butt! You know I'll hook ya up! We have to get a nice trade lined up once I get all my stuff straight!

Jendub · 09-12-2005, 03:01 AM

you know I will hook you up....I got some stuff for you that I have been saving to send. You need to get your butt to the fragging table and start cutting.
