April meeting 4/14 @ 7PM - Grant's house

Laura and Jim will be hosting the May meeting this Saturday the 12th and it will be the usual of food, drinks, raffle and fun.
 
Doors will be open at 6:00 pm for social talk and the meeting will start at 7:00.  Parking gets a little tight and the city says you can't park on 4th but there is a parking lot a block away.   Meeting is usually held in the backyard so feel free to bring your favorite lawn chair, weather permitting of course.

If you need address/directions, contact a club member.

Best if you park at Mini Mall (where the spaghetti establishment use to be)
 
You will get to see his new frag tank set up in the making.
 
Hope to see you there!

I bought a beautiful Yellow Montipora Digitata but it looks like a Acropora Palifera or something similar.  It is nice and I hope to be able to frag it and share.  Amazon had some nice specimens and it was nice to visit with Mike.

Thanks Jeff it is a large piece and I am pretty happy with it.  It is one of the few large SPS corals I have bought for my tank most are frags.  I just could pass it up.

Angel,

Wow!!!!..... I never have seen a yellow montipora digitata. When it grows up then maybe you will give me a price. :lol:  :lol:  :lol: . Now I have a purple montipora digitata from Rick, but it died because my clownfish attacked it and it fell on the zoos Sad  Sad . My new tan cap montipora with purple dot is broken, also the clownfish attacked it Sad  Sad . I will catch the clownfish when I get the new tank and give him away.

Thanks,
Zul

Zul sounds like a good idea to give that clown away.  Sounds like the clown from hell.  Yeah I am sorry to hear about your loss.  I think once the yellow digi gets big enough to frag some club members will be very happy. Cheesy

Angel,

The bright coral I saw in your tank is a "Sun Coral" or "Tubastrae".  For more information, check out this link on the coral.

Just to clear things up Rick and I are talking about two different corals.  The Sun Coral is under a ledge in my tank and the monti is at the top of the tank.  Thanks for the additional info Rick I appreciate it.
