I've got a couple nice ones. A $500 efflo, and a wild one that is like 4 shades of blue when it's happy and a purple rim. It's doing the efflo thing where they just encrust like beasts forever.

I don't know the name of it but I have a highlighter green efflo from reef raft. It's only about 3" across but it is a gorgeous piece.

I have a 300DD I'm getting ready to set up. The original plan was to all stags, with 1-3 "plates" as the focal point.
Going to have to set it up for now as a new home for the fish, they need more room.
I have a 120 that'll be for the sps. Not sure if there will be enough room for even one efflo or soli.

I have a small BC Efflo 2.0 that I like a lot. My Lavender Tang decided it likes it this week. It's chewed back the edge quite a bit.

Rogger Castell's Banana table was one of the best, I think soli/efflo? I ever had. Super hard to find now a days. Lost my colony years ago and don't ever see frags come up for sale.

Here's a pic of an old $500 efflo around 2009ish. This grew to about 12" across, then I chopped it up when I phased out of sps about 5 years ago. I still have a small colony (~5") now that I'm back into acros full swing.

Question for you guys.
I am about to convert my tank into an spa dominant tank. I have an efflo frag that I plan on putting in the tank. Should I place this on the bottom of the tank maybe a few inches off the floor of the tank So when it does form into a plate shape it won’t shadow everything.

They love light and flow. I always place them on the sides out of the way.
