For those interested in the history of the original "Superman monti"

[copps]

There's an excellent thread I bumped on RC here, and I also found the original for sale thread on RC from almost five years ago here.

 

Kind of a neat read on the history of the most famous montipora that originated from one colony

I got mine from Doug, who got it from Byron who got it from ?(kannan)

 

COPPS - did Kannan get it from you?

 

I sent a frag of mine to Sanjay.

 

Older shot of my colony from last fall. Started as size of thumbnail. Now close to 3x4.

Its always fun to be able to trace corals back like that.

 

Now the bigger question is, do you have any frags of it for sale?

Thanks for the reading material at work....... It's very interesting how the superman has traveled all over the country....

Always! As I mention in the thread I've sent this thing everywhere, including Alaska which was pretty neat...

Was that pun intentional?

I'm almost positive Kannan got it from someone who got it from me, but for the life of me I cannot pull it from my noggin'. Kannan and I used to talk at the good old "Reef Tank" when we were waiting for new shipments of sps to come in

 

Yeah I had a piece for Sanjay bagged up again when you showed up for the trip a couple of weeks ago... Sanjay killed the original I gave him when he stopped by in 2005 I think

Perfect timing of this tread! I just got one last night from Josh Pabon who lives up in PA. He sells them on Ebay under the handle "falcon41176" I traded him a Ranco temp controller for four frags and the Superman was one of them. Really a nice guy to deal with. I hope it grows fast!

I got a frag from Doug last fall. It is doing very well and encrusting nicely. Great color!!
