Some old school corals that most people have had at one time or another.

PC rainbow. It's one that every reefer should have.

Paletta tricolor. Nice deep blue with bright green tips.

Thank you.

The latest FTS is on page 1, post 1. Anytime I take a FTS I update that post with it. I need to update my frag tank pics as it’s pretty grown out now.

@bubbaque Do you have a colony pic of the your lady in pink? I’d love to see what mine, hopefully, will grown into. Mine seems to be a really fast grower. She was a 1” frag when I picked her up on Dec 27th.

Not a colony pic but this is it. This is the RRA version and not RRU.

what size tile is that on? I thought you were using the 4" travertine tiles at this point, but if that's 4" then that acro is much bigger than it appears, lol
Its a mixture of 4" and 3" tiles. When my tanks started to fill up I switched to the 6x3" tiles and broke them in half.

That’s awesome. I think mine is the RRU version but I’m not exactly sure. Thanks for the awesome thread. Love your stuff. Very inspiring
Thank you!

I know I shared this Paletta pink tip not long ago but I wanted to share how light makes a difference on the pink tips. For most of it's life its been shaded by the PC Superman above it but as it's grown out part of it is starting to get out of the shade. I cut my PC Superman so it receives light now and you can see the lower left side that was shaded still green even though its the same branch. The parts that receive light are pink and the part that doesn't are green. So anyone with the Paletta pink tip with green tips maybe give it more light.

Brutalize it with enough light and the entire branches are pink with a green base

I gotta move one of my frags. Both are low and both only show a little pink.
