Lets see if I'm the winner

I did an order of 5 frags that were normal sized sps and this "Free B" was in the box as well. I looked at it and laughed. Its like half a polyp and must be amazingly special

I gotta ask, where did you get this monument of patient to glue one polyps of a sps to a frag plug.

You just wait, in a quick 10 years that will be a stunning colony!!!

It’s a free free frag plug with a bit of algae

That’s a lot of putty for such a small stick. It must be very heavy

I don't have a picture but I started my one main zoanthid colony off of a single polyp that fell off my other tanks rock.

Pretty soon sps will have one single polyp glued on a plug the way it is going. And of course at a premium price.

I ordered a torch coral about 2 weeks ago and while it’s healthy and open I must admit I was pretty disappointed by the size. Stalk was about .5 inches. Tentacles were about .25 inches. Flesh band was super small and didn’t even go fully around the head

This guy was definitely a fresh hack that wasn’t recovered fully.
Hack. Giant glob of glue. plop in place. Dry. Pack. Ship

But. I will care for it and it has a lot of potential. Had it a week so far and now it looks like…

Didn’t want it to fall off the plug. I wouldn’t be able to find something that little if it got knocked loose.

That's how big zoa colonies frag themselves. I'm constantly finding single polyps in weird places.

I ordered a Yoda from WWC and landed a whole 3/8” tall frag. Lesson learned… never order anything that’s not WYSIWYG.

Ordered a coral off of ebay. Didn't pay attention to the description, when it showed up it was a frag of a mushroom that was smaller than the eraser on a pencil. Just looked and can't find any pictures except the screenshot from the auction listing.

Did it come from Donovan’s reef (dreef)?

corn bread

That actually was going to be my second guess

That’s rough, did it survive and grow out?

I can’t be mad though because it was free. If that was a frag I paid for then there would be a problem

 

[VintageReefer]

Dreef torch - looks like the size of a fingernail lol

Cornbreads frag plugs are mini size. Look at the size with one zoa on it. Then his mushroom frag is on the same plug…sooo…that’s about the size of a single Zoanthid

Both these guys use highly filtered, highly zoomed in photos

No it did not unfortunately. Now that my tank is growing mushrooms so well I would be curious if it would have grown faster.
