FS Rose BTA, Millepora frags, acro frags

At long last....time to move the "temporary" "proof of concept" frag tank, plumbed in to our large 175 gal bowfront tank.

The experimental setup has been a success, and the stand is ready to start permanent placement of the new stand and drilled frag tank. So, now we have to move the temporary tank out of the way to move in the new tank. This will go a whole lot easier if I can move out some of the exisiting frags. Don't think I can wait till the next reef club meeting, as we're out of room now - have experienced tremendous growth lately.

The rose BTA's split again, and a couple are on the glass so those are ready now, $50 ea.

All frags in the frag tank are mounted and ready to go - nice looking LARGE frags. Prices will be good....

Really nice looking milliporos neon bright pink, tri-color (bright yellow tips with green and pink), seafoam green.
Bright blue-tipped acropora
Loisettia (Steve Tyree Ltd edition coral)
Green Formosa
Blastomosa Merletti

I can frag some other items from the other tanks (primarily SPS) while you're here and you can mount yourself - the tanks have had lots of growth over the holidays.

PM me if you're interested in stopping by today or in the evening during the next few days. If you already have our number, just give a call.

Rick & Terry

How big are the BTA's? If they aren't huge, I would be interested in one of them.
Also, your mailbox is full.

Yes, they will if they are right up against an acro. I have been amazed how well some of the acros right next to the RBTAS are doing, but when it starts getting crowded they will always win.

Generally, no they don't move around all over the tank - pretty much stay where I put them originally. Except when they are in "fertility season" (when they spread out, like grabbing the edge of the rocks to split themselves into too.
