If possible, I would like to buy one of these frags from you... how much will you be selling these frags for, if I may ask?

The frags of my monti's are not as brillant at the moment as they are sitting on the bottom of my 225 waiting for new homes. I'll see what I can do to get some photo's.
Sara, Please reserve the blue planet frag for me!

Okay... I actually need to thin a couple of things down in my tank... I have some really good growing orange digitata. Just ask Efrain about it! I also have frags of these green skirted zoos... I'm just going to be bringing what I can in a cooler and meeting people there as I can't stay too long and I'll be there for a couple of hours from the moment it begins.

I'm only asking $10 a frag. I'll try to get some of my digitata pix online too when I get a chance. Just let me know...

OK, here's some quick photo's. As I mentioned above, these are not their usual brilliant colors, especially the Leng Sy as they have been sitting in the bottom of my 225 tank. The more light they get, the brighter they are. The Blue Planet with show more blue under 20K's and a deep purple under 10 & 12K lighting. Sorry about the sand on the monti's, but the wrasses keep covering them on me and it causes browning.

Here's the ones I'm keeping, so they are just for color reference:

Here's the Blue Planet that will be fragged:

depending on your t5s then that does not limit you...

I have t5s and have everything from softies to SPS... so far no troubles

I just started with some cheap frags to see if they would work. for me this was green slimer and birdsnest from the last swap. Both of these frags have taken off. the birds nest already has multiple nubs of branches forming and the green slimer is encrusting the base and has two branches forming as well as the tips are beginning to grow back over.
