Stix, I'm in the same boat. I received a frag on Wednesday from one of my partners and it still hasn't opened up, though the polyps are still alive.

The ones from my other partner have partially opened. Will try to get pics soon.

Was finally able to get some pics of one of my trades. They still not opened all the way but close.

Fcwham · #**440** 09/21/2005, 07:55 PM

cool hope they shipped well. we have had a warm spell here so when I opened yours today overflowen they were a little warm, the orange have opened up well but the others are a little unhappy, they will likely be good in a day or so. I will take pics soon, the orange are bright!!!

AJ69 · #**441** 09/21/2005, 08:10 PM

Got today the frags

from bkiba and overflowin.I'll post pics as soon they open.

bkiba · #**442** 09/22/2005, 05:07 PM

here is what I got from dcoufol, some are still partially open, but they look good, thanks for all the reds, I'm am somewhat (no longer) red zoo deficient.

Here is what you have to look foward too

MinibowMatt · #**443** 09/22/2005, 08:00 PM

Hey all Here are pics of the zoos I got from thepropagator. Most are open, still waiting for a couple polyps! They look great and very healthy and vibrant!

Thanx Dan!

And I got these from CritterZ. These look really cool, although all the polyps havent come around yet either. Im still waiting for the second frag to open...

(sorry about the dirty glass!

Glad they're doing well. If the reds don't open for some reason, let me know and I'll ship some more out to you. And.... if you ever need any bright green/yellow combo's, let me know.

No one else has swap pics? I know most of us are swapping these past weeks! Come on Post Em Up!! show off your stuff!

Steve Ho · #**446** 09/27/2005, 07:04 AM

My stuff is slowly wasting away. 2 out of 4 frags are already gone. One more has yet to open after 2 weeks, not looking too good. And one that looks like it will make it, but still not fully opened for photo purposes. I'm pretty bummed.

Stixbaraca · #**447** 09/27/2005, 07:58 AM

My one frag of pink zoos from Nitrofish is half open, and half wasting away. I am going to attempt to frag the good portion. My other frag I got from Dolfan0925 is slowly melting away in front of my eyes with no salvageable polyps

bkiba · #**448** 09/27/2005, 08:39 AM

Stix and Steve,

Did you guys dip your frags or treat them in any way when you got them?

Stixbaraca · #**449** 09/27/2005, 09:59 AM

I did a FW dip when I first got them...and an iodine dip about a week later when it became evident they weren't doing so good.

bkiba · #**450** 09/27/2005, 12:26 PM

hmm, sounds like you took the proper precautions. I would still to the iodine/FW dip first thing. What is the light you have compared to your partner? If they get blasted sometimes they will melt away. Also putting them in a higher flow / lower light area can help them recoup from a rough trip / disease / or other stress.
