Heading to San Diego tomorrow. I'll see how Dendra does on 5 days of nothing but dosing Phyto. I don't trust anyone else here with taking care of her.
Have you introduced dendra to your wife, saying something like this," Honey, meet the new mistress." Your wife will probably roll her eyes and laugh.

Hah! She’s the one that bought her for me. She loves Dendra but she thinks I’m nuts to go through so much trouble for one coral. She admits though that Dendra is the most beautiful coral she’s ever seen.

I’ll still be away for a few more days so I’m hoping Dendra is doing good on her own. Absolutely loving San Diego so far.

I don't know if still there, in San Diego, but in harbor use to be a ship like a clipper ship, was a restaurant and moved back and forth in harbor. Night time was lite up. Haven't been there for 12+ years and I'm only 1 hr away. Bummer

Well, I couldn’t help myself. I had to go to a little place called Reefers Garage in Vista CA. Decent little place. Some nice corals. And of course I couldn’t help myself. I ended up purchasing 2 corals and my wife got a nice bi-color rose bubble tip anemone. He said he will hold them for us and ship them to us on the 7th.

I can’t completely remember what I purchased. Complete impulse buy based totally on visuals. I think one was a golden flake looking palythoa. The other I think was a super bright pink goniopora. Very unique looking colors to me.

Went back to store today and got pics and actual names of corals.
