ultimate frags plug

I went over to see Rommel of ultimatefrags.com.

I'm seriously, excited about what I picked up and Rommel is a great guy. He's really into his corals and he spent a lot of time showing me everything, talking about equipment and fragging me all sorts of great stuff. He's very generous and you should check out his site if you haven't already.

I've got to fire up my camera now and gets some shots of the latest additions.

Absolutely. Rommel is awesome to deal with. We still need to get down to see his new tank though.

Ultimatefrags is only a few blocks away from my house but I never been to his house before. I'm worried that if I make it to Rommel's house I might end up going home with a truck load of frags. There is no room in my 90g for another frag.

I've made a trip down to Rommel's, and it was well worth the 45-60minute drive.

Great guy, awesome system, amazing corals!!!

I just looked at his site, he has a $1500 (yes 4 digits) anem!? it looks really cool though.

Hehe, that's a rhizotrochus... some kind of super rare coral.

I think Jendub had one a while back. Atlantis too. Been seeing those online for $300 on up.

Miquel at fraggle has a rhizo right now for 240 bucks. I'd buy it right away if I had that much in my pockets!
Atlantis's eye of the ocean is the one you're talking about right? I think that's actually Balanophyllia sp. If they were rhizos I would've bought them a looong time ago.
