Restocking, Looking for Replacements

stuckey_t · 11-16-2006, 04:28 PM

I've hit the point where I'm restocking my new tank. With the teardown of the 150 and transition I've lost a few of my favorites. Basically I'm looking around the club to see if anyone has any of these from me that I could get back. I will gladly trade for them or buy them (if I sold them to you

) Most I have pictures of, one I do not......any and or all are worth me "questing" for. If you have frags/colonies of any of these please let me know and I will make it more than worth your time

1. Mike Paletta Blue (May look like either of the 2 corals in the center and right side of the picture)

2. Miyagi Tort (Not really a tort but a very pretty coral)

3. From Ultimatefrags.com Their "purple monster" (not the Tyree..) Bought this coral as a small frag off of ebay from Rommel and it got nicer and nicer the bigger it got! (Coral is dead center in the picture)

4. Last coral is a big thick staghorn. Coral was about as big around as your thumb in places. Long branches. David G. had something similar in his 300 and I believe Harve may have one close.....don't have a pic so this one might be a lost cause. I do know that I fragged it a few times but not sure who I might have given it to.

Any help on any of these would be appreciated. The Mike Paletta blue in particular took me about 2 years to find (when it wasn't super well known) and holds a special place in my coral memory. THANKS FOR ANY HELP

I have some myagi tort and a chunk of the paletta blue I got from you. You are welcome to that and anything else I have -except for maybe someof the micros

Awesome! I'm going to take you up on that for sure

I'll send you a PM to discuss...

Vertical has a piece of the MPB. You gave it to me, I gave it to him. You may have to take a trip down there to identify it though.

Happy to help!

#4. Is this the purple one ? I got mine from Bramucci who got it from the original atlantis frag farmer ( not the place now called atlantis which was one of the first frag websites that I can recall back in late 90s ). 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......

I have some frags that I got from D over the last year or so. I'm not sure what you are looking for exactly but you are more than welcome to come take a peek at my setup and corals and grab some frags if you want.

I probably have a few frags available you might want in this mess

it's more like monthly water changes... and that's it for the last 8 months.

A lot of the colonies have now joined others, hybrids? And there are quite a few under and between the larger ones. That blue rimmed derasa clam is 8" long and has stuckey_t's name on it

What an Amazing Piece of paradise.
How long has that taken you to look so great.
Sheesh i can see the dollar $$ Going up.......

Wow!!!!

I might have the staghorn you're looking for. I acquired a decent size colony from David G. back a while ago. I should be able to give you a nice size frag.

Nice to hear from you Mark. LOVE the tank. Just showed my wife. I now have extra $$$ for the new set up. Thanks.

Nice to see all people step up for Troy as well.
