Hi everyone
My name is Wayland and this will be my 1st time to the MARS frag swap.
I was wondering which frags I should bring?
Most are common or no name sps
My plan is to bring 3 commons
Then 2 red planet and 1 branching cyphastrea to get into LE round.
Think it said unlimited LE so maybe two set of the same?
Would this work?
Posting pic so anyone getting my frag can see the mother colonies.
LED lighting no more then 55% Radion.
Pic at 14k with iphone6
Would anyone want frags of unknown ones or just bring PL and mr ugly for common.

I've never been to a frag swap, but those are all great looking corals so I don't think you could choose wrong.

I shouldn't speak for him, but I can tell you that it is not. It is a sweet coral though.

Wayland - if you bring the PL and RP - those will count as entrance frags and you would not need to bring 3 common - tho those are sweet and I'm sure folks would love seeing them on the tables.

Bring as many as you want. Those are great looking pieces. The more frags the better.

Good enough for me. I saw a very similar piece at vivid a couple months ago and they called it a horrida.

Also was able to do one frag of this one
sold to me as a wild AUS SC
Been in my tank for almost a year
so-slow grower but I have it at the bottom so maybe more light?
