LF Simplex Acro & 20K Lokani

Looking for a piece of each if anyone has them. Restocking the classics after fumigation tank reset. Never had simplex before and want to try it. Still bummed I lost my 20K a while back and can't remember who I sold a piece to that may still have it. My default vendor for that piece said his colony is in coral heaven so bummer there. Thanks

The 20k and 30k lokani were some of my favorites.

John (Copps) has the 20k I got it from him early in the year but lost it super sensitive piece. Or my tank just sucks.

I have the simplex (aquacultured) but afraid to frag it starting to get that nice blue/purple sheen. Can txt me for a pic though.

Best,
James

Thanks James! Another member pinged me and said the same thing about the 20K. Would love to check out the simplex you got. Heck would love to check out the whole tank. Need to make the trip up that way one of these days.

I'll let you know when I frag my 20k. I give up on simplex. Hard to keep, grow slow, and die easy. LOL

Agreed simplex is a slow grower I've had mine for almost a year now not sure if it grew, and constantly afraid it's going to rtn. But then from my experience that's how it is with most deepwaters aquacultured or wild. I'll see if I can post a pic in this thread been a while since I posted pic directly on RC.

FYI. I'm going to place an order with Copp soon. He's busy for 2 weeks and will be available after.

If anyone wants the 20k Lokani let me know and I'll ask for more frags!!

I ordered a 20k from him months ago and accidentally knocked the frag down without noticing.. I saved like a 2mm tip.. probably 5 polyps total lol.. I want another piece cause this one will take years to grow.

I placed that 20k Lokani low in the tank thinking it's deep water acro.. but for the few months of having it, didn't look too well. The few polyps I have now i kept them high high at max light.. seems to be healthy. the new frag I'll probably keep in the middle somewhere
