Lg Wild Acro Colony......FS

[turfster26]

I am trying to re-organize my aquascape and this acro has to go. I've had it for 5+ years now and bought it locally. It is a wild acro and has really nice blue color to it. It appears more purple in the pic, but it is much more blue in person. It is the one left of center in the FTS.

Asking $150.00 for it. No trades or low ball offers....PM's will not be replied.

PM with any questions and I will be happy to answer.

Can I buy a big frag? The branch sticking up on the right? I would buy the whole thing buti don't have room

 

[Mattl22]

That thing is sweet! Wish u where closer and selling frags !

 

[turfster26]

Colony is pending, but I do have some existing frags in my frag tank....probably 2-3 that have been growing out for two months now.

It's pretty rare for someone to have success with a samonesis for 5 years. I hope the guy buying it has a good tank I sent you a PM about the frags.

Actually put me second in line for the colony. I'll pick it up tomorrow.

hey who ever get it i want a frag

 

[Adamc1303]

So many people are interested... Maybe we stick together on this one as a MR community and split this thing? Everyone wants the entire colony especially at that price but we can't all have it. Just a thought I am not imposing or judging. I would be really interested and maybe whom ever is first in line can get his piece for free for helping out! I am not saying get 100 frag plugs and a gallon of glue. We can split it into 5 or 6 even pieces in total. It's beneficial as well in case it doesn't make it in one of our tanks we can frag off again. We would be keeping more corals in the water if we always stuck to these practices.

Sorry I did not read the full thread and see that we already know who the lucky winner is when I posted above.

darn...it's kres....he doesn't pass nor flake.

i'll just have to blackmail him....i'm gonna tell your wife if you don't cut me a frag......lol.

at least it's going to a good tank.....crowded as h*ll but a good tank nonetheless.

Good to know. I just don't think this particular coral will hold color under LED's. Kres, if you keep the color after a few months you'll have me switching over I've only seen and had this coral color under 250-400w halides running low nutrient.

ohh boy here we go with them leds and kres am tired of u getting all the goodies don't u have enough already !!!!plus i wanna see were u gonna put this colony

I have a pink and yellow Samonesis acros 2years now both hold their color well under my LEDs ,but don't think this coral is a Samonesis

Guys.....I AM NOT SELLING TO ANYONE who is going to chop shop this lovely piece. I worked 5-years to grow this colony b/c it is an unbelievably slow growing. I only have frags from when I re-aquascaped my tank and pieces fell off.

So I'm going to hold it for now until I can find a home where it will stay a colony.....sorry.

He wasn't gonna chop it up. 1 inch off a couple branches won't hurt it needs some trimming. You did a beautiful job growing it out and you have a sweet picture. Move on keep a couple branches for yourself. It will be in good hands.
