I'll show you some of my Micromussa if you show me some of YOURS

One of the more popular threads on another "un-named" reefsite has this very title... I'll post a couple to get us started but I would love to see what micromussas you have collected?

Tangerines


Morphed out Ying Yang


Orange UFO RIP


Now lets see what you have?

Re: I'll show you some of my Micromussa if you show me some of YOURS

Mine came from you Doc and I have nowhere near the quality of pictures that you do. They are doing great though and I can't wait to grow out some large colonies. Perhaps you could post Poison Mystique and I'm a little hazy but I believe the third one is Sativa . Sativa and Poison have grown into at least 10 polyps from four or five. Mystique still looks great but hasn't grown much at all. I need to move it as I believe it is in slightly too much flow. I noticed that target feeding it the other night. Hungry little guys though they love the cyclop eeze!

Angel eyes has been my favorite for a long time. I got a frag from someone on frags.org that got the original from you. Unfortunately I lost it somewhere in my rock during one of the moves. Maybe one day it will pop up somewhere unexpected. If not I plan on getting another so keep me in mind.

Thank you Doc as always the pics are nice. The Angel Eyes drive me crazy....

Whatever you can do will be just fine with the school. I don't see anyone frowning on your donation for any reason.

Make no mistake there is interest in the micros here. I've received a few PMs asking about my dealings with you and these corals. Maybe when everyone gets tax refunds back .

Whenever I get my 90 up and stable, I plan on getting some Micros from you. I think they are totally awesome. Love the coloration and such. That's what I think is the best thing!

Re: I'll show you some of my Micromussa if you show me some of YOURS

If you want color the micros are a good route to go. From what I have experienced they are very hearty and hungry. They require T5 or halide lighting, moderate flow, and will grow extremely fast if target fed bi-weekly. Doc may have some other comments but that's just my experience. I've had a couple of people comment on the size of the actual polyps versus pictures. These are small polyps in person but when you see a large colony it is truly impressive.

Re: I'll show you some of my Micromussa if you show me some of YOURS

Ya, I've usually seen the photos and thought they looked huge. Then someone took a shot from far away and I was like WTHeck???

But when you see a nice sized colony of them, it's truly spectacular. I'd like to get a few colonies going. I'd love to see those types of colors in my tank when I get it going.

I'm hoping that four 48" overdriven T-5's (IC660) will be enough (24" depth - not withstanding the sand bed depth) to grow them properly.

I have mine under T5 with no problem and keep them fairly low in the system. Average polyp size on some of the morphs is <1/4".

Yes south bay I could get you set up LMK when you are ready

I just got in some AMAZING! new colonies this week I should have some pics up later this week

Yes Micromussa are small LOL They are perfect for Nanos or people who just like to collect.. They do not show up very well in Large tanks BUT when the colonies get larger THE colors make them hard to miss.
