New pic's of my six maxi mini's (some are in "hard to take a pic of spots" but I tired)

Same pic as above but I changed the contrast to make it brighter so you can see the 2nd maxi mini better

The Grizz 01-10-2012 06:49 PM

Big Als is where a couple of mine and fishoholic's came from. Blue Water had one in store a few weeks ago too.

jakejake 01-10-2012 06:52 PM

thanks grizz

Laurie, you have them on your rocks, did you have to physically move them there, or did they just moved themselves??
Mine just burrowed into my sand bed and stayed. Not a problem, but the sand-sifting goby has been sifting sand into them, and I can't always be avail to blow the sand off.
They don't seem to inflate or do anything to "shake" off the sand, either...so don't really know if that's really bothering them, or just me:sad:??

Anyone else have this problem??

Mine have come from Blue World and Big Al's. I know last time I was in at Red Coral Steve had some nice little ones.

Laurie, I like the two orange ones, I don't have any that colour yet......I need to go shopping:mrgreen:

Yeah but are they mini mini's or mini maxi's? Mini mini's are hard to find. I know they have Mini Maxi's.

Yes the minis are about 1-2 inches and the maxi's are about 4-6.

bignose 01-11-2012 01:23 AM

From what I understand they don't come in as many vibrant colour variations as the maxi's do.

2 orange? Pic #5 is a pale orange that has whiteish green and little purple ring around the edge and the one in the second and 3rd pic is a blood red colour with white and green around the edge. At least in person that's what they look like. I'll try to get some better detailed underwater pic.'s

Oh, it looks like a dark "burnt" orange colour in the pic(or maybe it's my monitor). If it's red that makes it even nicer :smile:

Ya ive had these in for months and months, I actually have 2 in stock right now with 8 more on the way tomorrow morning! They are really neat!

Well now I just have to go out and buy some of these. They look awesome

jorjef 01-17-2012 01:22 PM

No new pics, just a story. I had my wife pic up one when I was out of town, I had her put it in a small plastic basket and attach the basket to the side of the tank with the mag float. Long story short he went for a walk over night which isn't very surprising but I thought he should be easy to find. That was two and a half weeks ago and it's wasn't until yesterday I finally found him. What is weird is he decided to travel about three feet across the tank passing by many spots he could have set up shop, tons on rock etc. but he decided that a good spot to be was right beside three other Maxi mini's on a rock sitting out on it's own...nice choice lol. It was like the other three were calling him " come join us, come join us!!"

noirsphynx 01-17-2012 01:44 PM

That's too funny! Glad you found the little guy.

Maybe they had help from my blue line trigger? Any thoughts/ideas?

Edit: just re-read though the coral magazine link about maxi minis and they do split on their own.

Just seemed odd that two of them split a day apart from each other. They were different sizes when I bought them and I got them a couple of months apart as well.

The Grizz 02-05-2012 04:42 PM

That means you have 2 of them to sell to ME!! :biggrin:

They just split and need to recover first, but I will be selling them once they've healed. You might have to fight Dawn off though as I know she also said she'd be interested if they split, however that was a few months ago so I'm not sure if she's still interested or not.

Just remembered that Dawn already has one similar to the one of mine that split.

I actually lost this one to a power head last month :cry: I do have another one that looks more like Laurie's pinkish one that split.


Here's my newest beauty that followed me home today. It's such a deep dark purple that it almost looks black. I've been wanting this colour variation for quite a long time now......and to think I almost didn't stop at BA's today to check it out :neutral:

fishoholic 02-18-2012 05:07 AM

Looks like you both might have to fight more with my tank then each other. A few days ago they decided to go for a walk and I have no idea where they went :neutral:

Me too!!!!! The main part of the orange one stayed where it was but the smaller split part is MIA. The real annoying one is the reddish purple green one. It was the 1st one I ever got and it never moved until it split, can't find the smaller part of it but the larger part reappeared just under my elephant ear mushrooms :twised:
