lol...one of the nicest one went in one of the holes in the rock and now I can't get it out...hopefully it will evenually crawl itself out...*crossfinger* the only way to get it out is to crack open the rock and I don't want that...It is a 35-40 lb rock...with roughly 50-52 Rics

Did you buy the rics on the rock or did you put them there?

I bought the rics loose and placed them on the rock...
let's hope they will naturally sick on their own...I'll probably give it 2 wks and see the progress. Some are on a pebble and some are on a quarter size rock...

hand picked them rics! Actually I got them at 1 shot from Scott's in elk river...He had 130+ Rics come in and I got first dibs! w00t! I had other rics in my tank, I just added them to my project ric rock.
The pics I took doesn't do it justice...They are a bit stressed right now...Hopefully sunday they will open up like they did yesturday...Should fill the rock well...

OP

will do
Thanks Zibba, Nope...It will be probably hmmm...about a month, is my guess to properly stick themselves onto the rock...But after a month pass and the ones that doesn't stick...I probably will be glue the small pebble its on, onto the rock...Out of the 50+ rics right now about 3 of them are sticking to the rock...
OP
OP
a few of the rics have multiple mouths and a couple has 4 mouths on it...It should fill the rock well when they decide to split later on, I'm not one to cut'em...

A Ricordea garden. That will be really nice when it fills in. Rics are a favorite of mine. I would even say I like better than most Acans anyday. I'm trying for a simular look, but I'm only going to add slowly. 50-52 Rics, you don't mess around. That's great.:biggthumpup:
