Isnt that what we are looking at?

Looks really nice.

 

[ScarBosh]

yeah thats the colony alright! and the coralites or polyps when extended are a very pale blue.

 

[Tangwich]

looks bleached..lmao..kidding...(inside joke from the boards over the last couple of weeks....)

very nice piece and great name for it. can't wait to see it as a huge colony in someone's tank.

haha missed that forum episode lol

I hope its in my tank you see the HUGE colony in one day.

 

[Proraptor]

Im guessing its a slow grower?

 

[ScarBosh]

yes as of thus far its a slow grower but i relocated it to a better spot in the reef. Its exactly like the red planet as far as placement in the tank. higher light=more blue less green. mid light=more green in the base

 

[lowbudget]

where you get this one, i have a piece similar to your but i got from frag farmer years ago. my colony died it was a size of a softball was able to save a few pieces

 

[ScarBosh]

i'm a sucker for "potential" corals. friend said he got it from a wholesaler and it was dead and dying. looked almost all white with a very small hint of blue. he saw nothing in the coral but death so he gave it to me.

 

[lowbudget]

Nice...

 

[xxtechxx]

i want to see a picture of it with polyp extension... =]

 

[rayray]

im blue & green color blind, but I still want it

just kidding.

I just showed it to my wife and she said "looks like all your other spikey coral!" No, all her shoes look the same. Its so obviously different, duh! I have no idea what shes talking about.

BTW, thats a low flow growth pattern.

thats funny stuff. sounds like my wife...."thats no red thats pink" babe its called "Red Planet" for a reason.

you're right about the growth. I did have it in a lower flow spot, but now its in a medium flow and higher spot which makes the blue come out more or really makes the green show less however you want to look at it

 

[bvysochin]

Such an amazing piece! Once I resetup my display ill definitely wish for a frag!
Im close by. So maybe we can work out some kind of trade down the road.

 

[jessesoto33]

I want a frag, LMK!

 

[bustayanky]

I want a frag too, Let Me Know if you are going to RAP!

 

[ScarBosh]

Just Posted the Planet Earth in the for sale thread.

 

[robojet]

That's a beautiful coral! Let's all wish for faster growth...

 

[amunuca]

That's something I would love to have in my tank, but being new to sps, don't think it would be a good idea. I would hate for it to die in my new tank.
