New batch of Crocea's

[masterswimmer]

This new batch of 4"+ crocea's is amazing. The last batch sold out and now I've got these three. I am posting first 2 hrs in tank pix. Tomorrow will be better pix. These pix, once again do not do justice to these spectacular clams.

Each one is $80

Lots of greens, blues, purples and teals:

Like a lightning storm at midnight. This one is deep purple with irridescent blues:

Another lightning storm but add some greens in there:

Like the last batch, they will go quick. I've got guys in Miami and Pa. asking for these things, but I want to offer them to the club members first.

Kinda high in price for Crocea's.

 

[masterswimmer]

Over 4", they are nice size. The supplier upped his prices for these 'ultra's'. Last week they were $10 cheaper and my price only went up $5 this week. I ate some of it. They are really spectacular to see in person. Hopefully tomorrow when lights fire up they'll photograph better.

Beautiful clams. I wish I could, but I wont get any clams until I am 100% positive that I have caught and killed every single predatory worm in my tank. (I have gotten at least 15 so far, I know there is at least 1 more though)

-Alfred

 

[masterswimmer]

Thanks Alfred. Good luck on your hunting. BTW, is worm season open yet? lol

Russ

I've gotten good at catching them. I built a better trap than the last one and I was catching about 4 a night.

Had to stop when I got the surgery. Now if this #$@!# infection goes away I will get back on track with what I want to do with my tank.

[masterswimmer]

Good luck. I hope your recovery is speedy and painless.

I wish. The oral surgeon saw me today and informed me that I am one of the lucky few that get an infection. They have me on some major antibiotics. That's why I am typing instead of sleeping! I never heard of this before- but the instructions for these say that I can not lay down for at least 30 minutes after taking them!

These are the next day shots after they've had a night of acclimation. A world of difference.


1 - Like a midnight electrical storm. Deep purples, blues and teals:

2- Oceanview fairways. The greens swirl around the deep purple, blues and teals:

3 - A painters pallete of the blue spectrum:

Russ,

I just acclimated the clam that I bought from you the last time and I must say it is absolutely beautiful!!! Thank you so much! I look forward to the next time!

Best of luck with everything!

Eugene,
You're very welcome. If it is looking good now, you'll be even happier to know that tomorrow will be even better.

How well did the frag of Mycedium acclimate?

Thanks for the well wishes. I can use all the positive karma I can get.

Look forward to seeing you at the swap,
Russ

 

[ezee]

Russ,

Mycedium acclimated well, I think. I will let you know in a few weeks how it is really doing!
Very interesting frag though!

Eugene

 

[masterswimmer]

Glad you like it. It is a very different type of LPS.

Russ

 

[masterswimmer]

I'll take $75 for crocea # 3.
