Looking for a good size frag of Ice Fire Echinata
Acropora echinata


Thanks

You are much better off trying to find a colony of Ice Fire. It is a notoriously slow, slow, slow grower.

Yeah I read a few people saying that, that's why I was asking for a good size frag lol.. good luck finding a colony I think.

Thanks for the help

I am sure we wont be the only ones drooling today either lol.

no I didn't, I met up with a buddy fro GTA aqauria and he has a colony and said to drop by for a generous frag. Also has all the rest on my list for now except for Orange sherbert Setosa

Might have a hard time finding this one......


Can I see a pic of your score?

I google orange sherbet setosa and came up with Jason Fox's setosa.  To me it looks the same as any of the Setosa you find around here.

 

[davesolo29]

Here it is.  I have read that it's a tough one to keep.  Here's hoping I can do it.

Yea I have to agree.....
Funny you mention this because the frags of Montipora setosa I brought to the show were a hit (and they should be because they really glow!) but I was telling people that I've only ever seen setosa is this colour.....never in any other, not even different coloured polyps..... Different shades or contrasts of the Montipora setosa likely occur from the lighting and water conditions it's being grown under. I originally got my monti setosa from you, Darryl.

So you think it is the same as your from MJC?  If thats yours?  Thanks for the info Darryl.

my setosa, which came from parksy who got it from darryl, goes almost dark red in really low light, and neon pink if you blast it, orange is somewhere in between. im with the guys above. all setosas ive ever seen are the same and the differences in look come from lighting or water conditions/

Mine is like that as well, glows pink usually.  Got it from MJC last year so I'm not sure of its lineage, but it looks good and grows great.  It has more than tripled in size in under a year (I can say that accurately became I now have three frags of it in different places that are all larger than the original I aquired).

Thanks Phil. I should have grabbed one from MJC at the swap.

I live very close to them so I will have to stop by there and snag 1.

Cornbred and JasonFox are know for rebranding corals and taking some pictures that really pop.  Especially cornbred his pictures are either enhanced or taken under actinics.

Like others have backed me up on.  Its all the same setosa.

Wasn't Cornbred the one who lifted pics from your TOTM thread?
