Let me know what you think. I personally love blastos and was very excited I was able to pick up both these colonies in the same week. Enjoy

Each one has approximately 12. The neon green one is much smaller but has about the same number of heads as the teal one. The green was under more intense lighting (400W MH's) and the polyps didn't grow as big as I hope they will under my PC. The teal blastos have much bigger fluffier polyps which I really like. But overall they both have close to the same number of heads. And I got both for 60 bucks. Not bad for fairly big frags.

WOW, these are beautiful shots shaggydoo.
Is that a majano anemone on the lower left hand side of your last pict?
It really looks like one. You might want to get rid of it to avoid stinging your blastos.

Yeah I think it is. I tried covering it with epoxy but that sucker worked itself out and is definitely stinging one of the baby polyps on the side. I am going to have to cover him better or take the knife to him. We'll see how much he disturbs my blastos first.

I little bit of Joe's Juice will do the job for you.
I had an infestation a couple of months ago and nuked them all.
Avoid cutting them with a knife at all costs. They can reproduce just like aipasia when you cut them. Use the Joe's Juice or lemon juice to get rid of it :)
