For anybody who got the Jakes pink and green Acro

I had one colony of this that was only an encrusted disk. I'd planned on giving this to a person that had asked for the Acro after all the regular frags were gone, but really wanted it still. He had agreed to pay less than half the normal price for the small piece.

In the rush to pack everything, someone who paid good money for the Jake's Acro might have received this small encrusted disk by mistake. If you did, please PM or email me back. I'll be trying to contact each person that got the Jake's Acro by email or PM to figure out who I inadvertantly gave such a small frag.

I got one on a small disc that is fully encrusted. To be honest, it is a nice sized frag (we're from Manhattan and we're used to sub 300 sq ft apartments!).

Not sure who this was directed to, but it is good for me.

I am going to come over and measure your place Josh ... j/k

The only thing I didn't get was my Papaya. But thanks for the Acros.

Josh, okay, it was you. Glad to hear you are happy with it. It certainly will grow to a nice colony from that disk, but I know the branches were still really short!.

Alan, sorry about the screw up with your stuff. I think you got there pretty late. Anyhow, I also forgot to get it to one other member. It's a very hardy little coral, I could probably just drop it in the regular mail in weather like we've had. If you are game shoot me an email with your address.

When it is fully encrusted like that it spends all of its energy growing upward so I'm happy with it.

Lighting? Flow? I have it very high in the tank with a lot of flow at the moment.

I had the frags in my frag tank. Not much flow, but it was directly under a 250 W 10 K XM mogul (new bulb to boot) so it was getting a lot of light.
