How long has that taken you to look so great.
Sheesh i can see the dollar $$ Going up.......
2 1/2 years on that tank... a few dollars and a lot of trades . It really doesn't look that good since it is too overcrowded and a lack of pruning.

Mark, this is a family friendly site. I don't use those letters in that combination.

Although, your tank is ALMOST enough to make me think....

I'm due for a trip down his way anyhow Last time I went I think we got into a pack of Paulaner Oktoberfest pretty good. I'm pretty stoked to see what his tank has been doing since he's been keeping quiet. I'll bring the RED BULL and we'll see what happens...If he ended up with some of the corals I gave you I might be in heaven

We called it the stick man because of the original frag when starting to branch looked just like that. I have just a very small frag of that one. In my tank it was HUGE but Greg Sheilds bought it and killed it while in his holding tanks. I know Doc had it as well not for sure if it survived. I'd gladly give you some but mine is still less then 2" long so it may not look like much not because I'm stingy but becuase mine is just a small frag still too......
David,

I remember that coral from when you had the meeting at your house. Needless to say, the Achilles and "stickman" stood out! If and when the time is right I would love to bring a starter of the "stick" into my system. I can thank you for "mainlining" the SPS bug into my head Your tank was inspiring and I think that was the impetus for wanting a reef setup for me That and your house was the first time I met "Vert" and his cooler full of pretty sticks in zip loc bags. He had them all sold online before he even got there and the SPS orphans were all drooling

Saturday and Sunday, come over and fill up on chili and we can talk "shop". After a few beers you can give me directions to your house and I'll see what trouble Dr. D has thrust upon you

David, that pic of the stag that myunderwaterworld posted is your peeper coral.

I've given the formosa stag that I believe Troy is looking for to a few people, but I can't remember who....

Mark, your tank looks even more filled in than the last time I saw it!

Troy, send wags home with half the losettiae (steve elias?) that I bought from winger. I'll beat, errr, get the $ out of her some other day.
