And I'll bring my clippers to your house with me (you've got to sleep sometime)

How is that A. prostrata doing do you have any pictures of it? I'm going to take a few top-down pictures today and I'll try to get one of the parent (it's right under a brace ).

I will will be installing metal detectors at the door ...

Which one was the Prostrata Kevin ... The one you gave me last time? That was a bluish hue? If so, it fell on a capricornus and burned the tip off, it is recovering though. It was starting to go blue all the way down at the time too.

Not in the near future I am afraid, I want that one to grow nicely before I do any cutting ... It is a beauty though ...

I trade the frag with Chuck. When I got home from that Seattle trip the whole colony RTNed overnight. I am glad taht Chuck care for the frag so well because I will have to get a piece of it back from him. That frag was a salvage piece of wild coral from John at Lone Star Coral Creation. A wild colony came that was all dead except a few polyps, i was able to save it. The tank Alkalinity and Ca got too low and killed a few colonies of my coral when I went to Seattle for two weeks. It was beautiful but color seem much brighter in Chuck's tank. Chuck seem to get the very best color out of many of my corals.

Minh,

Yes, it has changed color since I have had it ... Still a very nice purple though

Late Spring we will hope to work out a frag for you.
