two pre-swap corals for sale

[johnanddawn]

Ok i have two corals that are so nice i would like to sell them before the swap (to be picked up there of course):
the first is my valida brood stock colony. as you can tell i have fraged this many times and could break it up and sell it as frags but if someone wanted it and left it to grow out it will make one beauty of a coral colony with nice purple tips and green polyps- 50$:


the second is a large piece off my hydnophora colony. this thing grows very fast and despite taking several small frags off of it over the years it still was starting to take up too much room so this time i cut off a really large chunk - this thing really GLOWS!- 30$:


if noone is interested i'll just bring them to the swap then

John,
What size is that Valida?

[johnanddawn]

the encrusted portion is 3.5 x 2.5, it has about 10 nubs growing anywhere from 3/4"-2" in length. the nubs are very thick and branching as all of them have been cut before but i haven't cut it for at least 6 months. i have a feeling that if left to grow out this will be a sweet colony in a couple years, so i would rather some one take the whole thing then it get broken up.
it is shaped like this because about 2 years ago i glued like 5 @1/2" frag tips on that rock and it took off so i've been just harvesting the frags as they got big enough. a couple people down there have frags from it like jason and fred
if i had the room i would keep it myself but i already have 2 very nice valida colonies (from the same) and don't have room for a third.

Even though I have a "Frag" (it's a small colony, about 3" tall and 2-2.5" wide) of the valida I'd be tempted to take this one if I had any room left...

[johnanddawn]

i know what you mean - real estate is very precious - no matter how big or how many tanks a person has there never seems to be any room left

both colonies sold - thanks mike
