Here is a couple ive been hiding away for a long time...and some of the slowest gowing ones ive ever run into...These are from my super private stash...

These ones have yellow tipped skirts, and are 3-4 distinct different shades of purple, with white accents around the mouth.

These are maybe a 1/4" across, maybe...
For what they lack in size, they certainly make up for in beauty.

I have some exactly like the second one. I've had them for almost a year and was really hoping they would increase in size, but they havent at all.

Nope, not at all...how do your grow? mine are slower than slow.

They are on a rock with some really other neat ones that are extremely small. I had about 5 polyps last year and about 8 now. Maybe in several years I'll have a colony, ha.

I have the second ones as well. They took off for a while, now they've kind of died back and are making a slow recovery.

thanks guys, its been a lot of work finding them, but its that much more rewarding when it pays off.

My buddy (dknuckles) and I for months on end went every saturday to several different LFS' and combed every inch of their stores hunting for the unusual pieces. Then of coarse both our wives put the hammer down for a while.:hammer:
