Talking Post Blastomussa Pics!

I've recently got some blastos and think I'm addicted

I have two wellsi varieties and was wondering about other colors blastos can come in

My red/green blastos

stank, Awesome red blasto.

doctor64776, that purple/green blasto is stunning.

Here is my new addition, I have seen a lot of these red/neon green blastos as of late...they are so purdy.

BLASTO IS MY FAVORITE!!!!!

I have nano's and my blasto does great. I have both wellsa and merlett (sp)

From what I understand blasto is collected deep in the ocean so they don't require high lighting.

Those who posted blasto pics,

How do you get the edges/rims to come out so sharp?

Mine seem always to be alittle fuzzy
