It's no problem. Welll ..... the only impediment is that it's a pretty tough coral and is kind of hard to break. That's why I don't have any "pre-made" frags is because it can actually withstand my clumsiness (unlike all the others, who seem to break off a branch if I so much as happen to look at them sternly...)

It's also, seemingly, a bit of a slow grower. Maybe I don't have the ideal current for it; or maybe it's just a slow grower (which make explain why it's such a strong coral .... more calcium). Which makes me a little concerned about fragging it, because I'm afraid I'll wreck it.

I'll try to gather up the courage to snip off a piece soon. BTW, you know what piece I'm drooling over in your tank (actually two pieces, but I couldn't ask you to touch that table on account of me).

It is a nice shade of pink. When I bought it, it was mostly white with a hint of pink. It has darkened up nicely.

I had bought a piece of pink montipora from Jayson, it was an awesome pink colour (Doug Lowey posted pics of it over at RC). Unfortunately under the Iwasaki's it turned into your garden variety purple montipora Darn, that piece was $25 for a 1" frag, too. Oh well, I should be happy it's happy and growing, it just isn't pink anymore!

Let me know when you work up the courage & I'll have a frag of the Green Gemmifera? waiting., the table I can't touch yet, I consider it to still be a frag, when it takes off, you'll get one., everything else is fraggable.

How did I miss this thread :?: You would think I was living in Edmonton and commuting every weekend to Calgary.

Welcome Kari.

I'll trade you a fat Siberian that doesn't listen or a burnt out 14 yr old Shephard for the small dog. Both dogs are excellent diggers!

Hmmm... I was thinking more my wife's little dog for some corals, but are you offering both of your dogs??

Maybe after I'm dead, which I will be when she finds out...

welcome to Canreef Kari.

Seems that we have started a interesting trading service (dogs and wifes)

Any ways I hope you will find your stay here interesting and educational at the same time. I know I have.

Enjoy

Josh

Welcome to the jungle Kari. I'm still a "new guy" here as well. A great source of entertaiment, knowledge and spelling lessons...
Based on my experiences, forgive Tony for his occasional grammar "blunders" as he will surely remember yours, and gladly remind you of them...
I have little to offer in the coral trading department as well but a definate interest in purchases'...trading pets/wives ? Hmmm, I've never heard my fish complain I spend too much time lookin' at the wife My fish have never awoken me (is that a word Tony?) in the middle of the night gaggin' up a "hairball" either...
