Thats neat to see, i was over snooping on reef central, i wanted to see some of the first shots of darryls "famous" pieces and found that photo above, theres also some good photos of the palmers blue milli from like 7 years ago when it was still only frag sized and the red digi too. its crazy to think how much that red digi has gotten around because of Darryl. way to save the reefs 1 coral at a time ;-)

Its amazing to think how much coral a large and healthy tank can grow.  To me getting corals to colour and grow has been the most enjoyable part of this hobby.  Of course when they do the opposite...well that is the most frustrating.

I agree. Absolutely unbelievable how well you were able to accomplish astonishing growth over the years with all those aquacultured corals. Being able to see your tank in person for so long, it was amazing to see how well some frags would grow into colonies for you in what seemed like such a short time frame.

Hey Guys.  Just an update.  My tank has been fairly pillaged but still some corals are left.  Mostly my larger, less rare pieces.  My interest in the tank is nil and maintenance is less than minimum.  My RO membrane is shot and I've been adding 75tds water the last 2 weeks.  Surprisingly the tank isnt all that bad.  The sand has some cyano and the tank tank is loaded with aiptasia.  Some corals are slightly less colourful now, yet others are just as colourful as ever.  Like I mentioned I've sold off most of my livestock at this point but maybe 25% left.  I hope to have it completely shut down by the end of April.  I'm planning on being at fragfest with the MJC guys so I hope to see you all there.

Here are some pics I never posted from February.  Some of my corals that still look alright.

We could always split them between the two of us

 

[davesolo29]

I'm good with that.  First we need to find out how much and what else is left.

Sorry guys.  This definitely isnt a for sale thread.  Currently they are spoken for but if anything changes I will put up an ad.
