I'd love to know where to get a bit m8 ;) even a small bit ;) ;) , ......i'm sure SOMEONE in the Redruth area said this wasn't for sale !!!!!, :o (weeks and weeks and weeks ago when it was spotted lurking in the corner) - I think all those blue fluffy bits are the recently discovered blue monti nuddibranch - they are !! simon G and i spotted them with the nanoscope ! :) :) :D

The shop does not do mailorder, but if people are interested, i can grab another bit colour it up and we can do some swapping, as long as linds and Jas dont mind

thought i would clarify as frag was not sold to me,i bought a large non frilly blueberry early last year and jason said he had a frilly bit rut did not want to sell it-i tried very hard but thought i was being a pita so stopped pushing!!lindsey gave me a bit with my last coral order as he remembered my interest,very kind and much appreciated and totally unexpected,cheered me up no end-just hope i can grow it on!!

haha, dont worry m8, its a very tongue in cheek but said with a genuine smile post aimed at the redruth duo - they have more nice/ bordering on sometimes awesome corals in the tanks that are often 'not for sale' (nothing wrong with that), 'sold but not collected (pita when you spot a really good one - week after week), or 'sold but not paid for or collected yet! - total p*ss take when at least 20 other people would have committed to, paid for and collected the coral weeks before. I think there are quite a few of us who want Jasons to do really really well, with a high turnover of amazing corals, and the only thing slowing that up is the ar*e holes who tie up their stock for weeks on end by claiming them on photoshoots then not doing the decent thing and finishing the deal asap.

I think the coral will encrust so well on the Isle of white that it will be over-run with frags next year hahahaha - lovely monti, well done ;)

cheers Marcus

hi lindsey,one fragged tip and other colony are pale but blue with good polyp extension so hopefully will be ok,i do feed fairly heavily every day and night tiny amount of lugals and amino at night also checked alk(10kh)and calc(440)ph stable day night(8.2)nitrate(<1ppm)phos(0)this one bugs me with d&d kit as it is always clear never seem to get colours shown on chart,i use gfo continuosly-i have ordered new hanna ppb checker which hopefully will make it easier to see!!
possible but seems unlikely given amount of grub that i have pushed phos to low i will up night food anyway as checker is promised this week which with luck will unbug me!!
thanks for the interest i will report any developements.
regards graham.
