Thanks man. I got the fish from saltwater fish.com they had some crazy sale going, I got the ORA platinum, ORA Picasso and a cleaner pack that had 10 blue legged hermits, 10 nassarius, 10 Astrea, 2 cleaner clams, 1 emerald crab, 1 peppermint shrimp, 1 ricordea and some weird macro brush plant all for 175 shipped. Ha, I didn't really want to buy anything but I have been wanting some new clowns and I just couldn't pass up that deal.

Is this the same Dominic from Monterey Bay Aquatics?

Yeah but I shut down Monterey bay aquatics because I got a new job that requires a huge amount of my time so it wasn't practical anymore. Now I just have this current tank. I sold off all my stock/equipment so I could start over with frags of some of my favorites and just be a hobbyist again.

Well congrats , it lance from New Jersey. You probably don't remember me but I got some stuff from you last year off of eBay last year. Stuff growing like weeds. Let me know if you decide to sell some sticks again

Hey lance yeah I remember you. Thanks! Glad to hear those frags are working out well for you. Got a thread? Or some pictures? Id love to check them out.

 

[cabj1970]

No, I need to do a thread. My pic skills are not good. Most of my stuff is the size of a softball frag the frag. The Steve starry night is crazy is still my favorite.i will try to take current pics and compare it to the original frag

Right on man, get a thread going so we all can check it out. Yeah the Steve's starry night is an insane piece. The original mother colony from my buddy Steve (reefsmac) is just mind blowing
