All Quiet

on the Western Front… I Mean Battlecorals Front!!!

super impressive my man. I can't tell you how great it is to see these corals out in the wild like this. Just makes my day, especially looking the way yours do.

Angelica really catches my eye too. A really nice smooth skin.



Thank you



This is a photo from December 28, 2024. So just about one year of growth. Gives you a sense of the growth rate. Really nice contrast between the deep blue and metallic tones. Occasionally a branch will develop yellow in the tip too.

Dude, your whole post is incredible man. Honestly, I can't stop looking at these. Any chance we could get a side-by-side of that blue flame?

Thanks! Main colony is sitting around 380-400 PAR at peak. I've accidentally broken off some of the main branches a couple times and have a couple other mini colonies around the system now. Really just ended up opening the structure which I think has been good for improving flow to the piece.

Any idea what this one is? My buddy grew a small colony from a BC table loaded battle box and gave me an frag. He’s not sure which one it is. I love it whatever it is.

Copps Calicali. It’s a small corner of the large colony I just broke off while cleaning

Could be. I guess it would be hard to tell definitively since these corals can change so much in different conditions. I never saw green on this one before if that matters. It’s a deep red and the tips are blue but the camera doesn’t pic up that color.

Its very cool what ever it is. Is it extra fluffy or do you have PE like that from all of your corals ?

I can’t stop my Copps Cali Cali no matter how much I screw up the parameters. Very forgiving Acro for me

PE is good on many of my corals due to heavy feeding of various frozens soaked in selcon, but this one has the extra fluff lol

Same here, it’s a very tough coral

Do you think the selcon improves PE? Haven’t used it in a long time.

Ime any additive with fatty acids will increase PE and improve tissue health in general. Selcon definitely does improve the PE if your nutrition is lacking.
