Well maybe? First of all, I have to give major props to my boy, Gabe, up at Gabe's Fish in San Antonio, I went by to visit yesterday evening around 7pm and didnt get out of there until 11:30PM!!!! Good times were had by all! And I felt really great emptying my wallet to such a great guy with a top-notch store and he shares major passion like me about the hobby and his customers.

As for the coolest coral you have never seen...Gabe recently got 3 "Walking Dendros," they are a sweet new coral coming into the hobby, been around research for many years, but sortof new from what I have read to the hobby....bad news is, you cant get them from Gabe because I BOUGHT ALL THREE OF THEM!!!! HAHAHA

Seriously, I purchased all three, one for me, and two for my best brothers from other mothers, Dr. Mark and James at GC Reef. It is so crazy because it is actually a mobile coral that looks like a duncan or something, and it moves around your sandbed, I think it is the only moving coral. The movement is actually the secret of an incredible symbiotic relationship because a "peanut" worm actually lives inside the bottom of the coral and moves around sifting the sandbed while the dendro is photosynthetic. But, with the tenticles and mouth, I am sure it eats phyto and such, and I actually target fed it a small piece of mysis shrimp of which it gobbled down like a fish!

Here is a great article about it, and see my pics down below!

I couldnt get pics of mine to come out great, so I am also showing a nice pic from cherry's corals of which looks just like the ones in Dr Mark, James and my tanks...I love expensive, rare stuff, and I cant wait to see what this guys does long-term!

Anyways, you know how we get when we are the proud new daddy of something cool and unusual, I just had to share with my fellow reefers of MAAST! Hopefully, I will see many of you knuckleheads next weekend at the MAAST meeting at GC Reef.

AGAIN, MAJOR PROPS TO GABE, GREAT TIMES AND GREAT STORE!!!! I DEFINITELY SEE WHY CORRUPTION, STANGCHRIS AND OTHERS ARE SO LOYAL AND LOUD ABOUT THE GOOD TIMES AT YOUR STORE!!!

Woo Hoo!
