I don’t have any plates ….seems like I’m slacking on the job.

I have had some acans, favias, and even a symphyllia coral come back from complete skeletal tissue recession…..

Good news! I'm nursing a symphyllia right now too. It's had receded so badly that I had given up on it. But if it makes it, I'll have a stunner.

Sorry in advance guys, but when I saw the title of this thread, I had to laugh!

I live in the Rochester New York area where we have a local culinary delicacy known as a "Garbage Plate", or simply just a "Plate", and ooooooooh man, do I love Plates lol!

Typically, a platter of mac salad and french fries or home fries, topped with two cheeseburgers or hot dogs, and absolutely smothered in a meat-based hot sauce, with chopped raw onions and mustard. Traditionally served with a roll or bread and butter.

Please know, there is ABSOLUTELY NO ketchup on a traditional Rochester Plate, and anyone who puts ketchup on a Plate should be taken out back and beaten repeatedly with a wet noodle.

A Plate is best enjoyed in your early 20's at about 3:30 am, after a long night of debauchery at the local bars

Some of those look pretty dang good! Do any have scrapple? I don’t know what that is but I’ve heard people up north mention it.

Heliofungia holy moly! That’s likely the prettiest heliofungia I have ever seen! How long have you had it?

I no longer have it (moved and starting over) but had it for several years. When I bought it, it had shorter fat tentacles like a typical one and no one wanted it at the frag swap because it wasn’t a gold torch lol. I guess something about the tank made it get really long.

Not so, my friend! Scraple, which is a spiced pork "product" akin to SPAM (which is SPiced hAM (in a can!)), is a Southern thing, not typically found in New York but I have and would eat it lol!

EDIT: I looked it up, and indeed Scrapple comes from about the Pennsylvania area, so south of me for sure, but definitely not the "south".

And yes, these plates are goooooood lol!

Again, sorry to interrupt here guys, I just had to laugh and share our local "Plates" lol!

I'll show myself out now......
