The Thread
Act IX - Scene Two
Looking at Damselblue's photos once again, Mrs. Birdfish thought about what LadyOctopus said ...
"... the piece on the far right also looks like it may have some tunnels and more open shape, but Damselblue says that is the nice side showing and that it is a really dense, heavy, flat structure on all the other three sides." ...
... and her eyes were once again drawn to that piece of live rock ...
As she gazed at the photos, in her mind, she saw what may have looked like a nice show piece with a very unique shape.
She understood that there was not as much variety in the shapes and sizes as Damselblue would have preferred, but she wondered if it could be that Damselblue, being a new hobbyist, did not realize the potential of some of the pieces she had received.
Her mind wandered to some of the comments made by others regarding Damselblue's live rock ...
Once you aquascape it
a bit it's going to look fantastic ...
Nice big porous looking pieces ...
I agree ..."nice big show pieces,"
no doubt they are some physically
good-looking pieces...
She just couldn't understand it.
Then, she noticed something in the photo where Damselblue had taken a picture of the bottoms of the rocks on the left-hand side of her tank, and there in the background was another side of this piece of live rock. It was partially hidden, but she did her best to see beyond the other pieces ...
... and she took a closer look ...
This is when she saw that there were actually two cave openings ... heavy and dense indeed!
And, so she answered her question as to how this piece could be "flat" on the other sides and she couldn't help but wonder what they really looked like.
