| Rabid Wolverine Reefer   | new Crocea well i didnt get anything on my birthday for the reef but i said i would sing happy birthday to myself when i did,,,well, i sang today! i scored a T. Crocea monster, he is 6" from tip to tip and has great color. he is nipped in several places along the mantle but he responds to movement and shadows well so he's in good shape. he should heal quickly. due to the nips fanagled a deal on him too...very happy BD to me! first pic is him acclimating,,sorry for the color, cam was in coffee filter mode and lighting was incandesent lamp.
