Show off your Prize Piece and Survivor!!

[evoIX_Reefer]

I was thinking about my tank and came across an interesting topic....IN MY OWN HEAD!!!! :scratchch

So POST pics of your Prize piece [not your private piece, JOKE!!] and Survivor!


**Survivor: picture of the longest living coral or fish. Normally those who have in the hobby for awhile or stayed with their tank for a long time have that one piece they always say...."I have had this piece since I started!" To me that says a lot.**

Please post in the following format [keeps the thread clean!]:

Name of coral/fish:
Life Span:
Notes
Picture:



Name of coral/fish: Miami Orchid
Life Span:2 months
Notes: I got it as a fresh cut frag and over 2 months encrusted and shown nice growth and coloration. Since day 1 the polyp extension has been awesome! Longest and favorite piece in my tank. Though my Superman Rhodactis comes a very close second.

this is my fav blue palmer milli frag.
its my fav due to the fact that i grew it out from the size of the tip of a pencil. i remember i had to carefully squeeze a tiny drop of ic gel so the glue wont drown it.

nice reefman.

That's a nice piece now aznt!! I'm sure it can easily sell for 5x what you planned last.
