Bubba's SPS Journey

Is that the WWC Aries Deep Purple Acropora?

Ive never seen that one in person but I don't believe so. This was from an unreleased colony they had in one of their farm tanks.

I have Ari's deep purple and it has red/orange polyps . I saw the mother colony in 500 gallon system and its very very close to ARC Fireworks. Spoke to josh and it does grow pretty slow . @bubbaque - the unreleased one you got is beautiful !!!

After 2 months, the WWC After Party is still holding on to the yellow. When I got the frag it had a lot of dark areas. I believe this is because the person I bought it from had it under a single radion and it was getting shaded.

That sure looks like a Pink Floyd it'll be interesting to see how the Allen grows up

I think when the After party is small they look almost identical. Once the After party grows out it seems to turn into mostly a purple coral with yellow around the corallites.

We shall see.

Btw, since you are close to WWC you should get a frag of this from them. I got it off Ebay so it may only be one of their farm chop shop jobs but I think it's going to be pretty sweet. Green with yellow polyps. Very thick branches too, well, at least my frag was cut from one. I just got it obviously.

Looks really unique imo, have never seen a green acro with yellow polyps and I love the thick branch. Excuse the ****** pic it's in the back of my tank and I used my phone.

I have a piece of this coming Wed based on your recommendation. Looks like it could be a neat coral.

I'm a metal head, but I feel like most millennials that went through high school between 2002-2004 would immediately get that reference ;)
