Justin,

What are you looking for?

FunGuy · #3 09/17/2006, 09:50 PM

I wish I had more too. The only one I have with babies are the more common green ones and these. I'm always looking for other Yumas.

Funguy: Let's do it

I'll shave mine off the rock here in a day or two, and mount it. Should be ready by the next meeting, or swap?

-Justin

Hey Justin,

That'll work for me. I can probably chisel mine off too. I'll try to get you the 2nd largest one on the rock. I can swap it next meeting or earlier. We'll work it out the details on PM.

those are both some nice rics, once our tanks are more settled, maybe we can all do some trades. I've got about 6 or 7 different types right now, most are splitting as I type.

Well, I had two offspring that Ive already got homes designated for. Maybe you'll just have to let me buy 1 or 2 off you Rian

Nice Rian

Save me the glowing neon pink and red ones, hehe.

I hope mine keep having babies too.

duec22 · #9 09/18/2006, 12:23 PM

yeah, justin that is a nice ric...I use to have one like that that got up to 6" in diameter...before I cut it all up.

...still have one floating around in my fuge..I think it even put out a tiny little baby the other week..

FunGuy · #10 09/18/2006, 12:29 PM

6" yuma is huge! That must have looked sweet. How did the cutting go? All survive?

Izsabelle · #11 09/18/2006, 12:40 PM

pretty yuma.........

I only have the basic green with pink knobs. It came from Rich and I think almost everyone in the group has that one.

I do have pink rics. ;D

duec22 · #12 09/18/2006, 01:00 PM

I don't have any pics of just it anymore in my gallery, but here is an old full tank pic...it''s on the right side middle of the tank...probably more than 6"..looking more like a carpet anm.

The cutting of it was kind of an emergency surgery...when I upgraded my lighting to T-5's the thing started to melt, so I started cutting chunks off and putting them down in the sand in a cave...I would say 90% lived, and I gave most of them away....that was before I saw what they were selling for online...then I used themt to get into the BAR swap...I had a big problem with rics reaching out and stinging all sorts of things so I just wanted it out of the tank....that why what is left is in my fuge..waiting for a bigger tank so it can have it's own island..

FunGuy · #13 09/18/2006, 01:29 PM

Pink rics? God pics?

Izsabelle · #14 09/18/2006, 01:40 PM

Here's a pic. it's not a good pic, but that's all I have for now. I can't find my memory card or my macro lenses.

FunGuy · #15 09/18/2006, 01:46 PM

Nice

I need a camera which can take good macro pics. They can look really awesome.

We need to trade some time!

duec22 · #16 09/18/2006, 02:04 PM

wow...great looking color on that one.

Izsabelle · #17 09/18/2006, 02:05 PM

Thanks. It's very bright pink, and I'm looking for an orange ric or yuma.

Justin.. sorry for hijacking, but if you want to do a trade in a few months, let me know. I'd love to trade a pinky for your blue/orange. I can't trade right now because my 40g isn't ready yet. It should be up and running in 2 months at the latest.

Liz,dont be sorry

And sure, I'd like to get all the diversity I can with this corallimophan. To me they are the cream of the crop. Also would like to open this thread to as many pics as we can cram in here as well! C'mon WeeReefer, dont be holdin on us

Exotic has a rock with about 10 green ones on there for only $29 bucks!

I wanted it so bad but did not have the room in my nano tanks for such a large rock. I thought the price was for each, but I found out it's for the whole rock.

Good deal for anyone who has a little extra cash and room for a 3-4lb rock in their tank.

Wee-Reef Master · #20 09/18/2006, 06:37 PM

Hi Justin and everyone else,

Thanks for including me on this one Justin (you know I love Yumas). I'll post a few shortly.

bkmorris · #21 09/19/2006, 12:06 AM

this orange one is now 3... orange with purple center and green mouth. the little green one next to it keeps getting blown off its rock.. not sure where it is.

not the best pic, i was trying to catch the clown "nursing" on the ric... i couldn't help but laugh when i watched him do it. he hasn't done it in a while... guess he's been weaned

Justin74 · #22 11/15/2006, 12:45 AM

Ones half inch , ones 5/8

Herman, wanna try for this weekend?

-Justin

FunGuy · #23 11/15/2006, 11:16 AM

Hey Justin,

We could try this weekend;p Sunday maybe late afternoon or sometime in the evening. I may play some basketballl first :P

What's with the green stuff in the background? Is it all bubble algae? Gotta get some stuff to eat it up if it is.

- Herman

Justin74 · #24 11/15/2006, 12:52 PM

Ya, its that colonial kind as well as individiual bubbles. Downside to using the rock from my 55 as it was all seeded with it :/ It's slowly going down as Ive been doing alot of manual removal, just gonna take a lil while as I let it run away from me for a lil too long.
I was hesitant to post a pic, as it all seems to congregate on that one rock Nothing like "airing dirty laundry:
