Favorite ORA sps

JGoslee · May 13, 2007

Just curious what everyone's favorite ORA sps is? I haven't seen that many of them and I only own a few but right now my favorites are the Roscoe's acro and Marshall island lavender. If you have pics post them. Here's a pick of my Roscoe's acro frag.

From the photos I've seen I really like the German Blue Polyp Acro. I have a Roscoe's frag arriving Tues.

i cant tell the difference b/w the roscoes and the chips.

i like my purple pillow the best probably when its color looks good. a close second would be the blue polyp german acro.

There is a big difference in the roscoes and the chips. Both are sweet in their own respects. Between the roscoes, chips, and german blue polyp acro, my favorite is still the chips. I guess it is hard to be a classic. I can't comment on the purple pillow as I do not have one, but the marshall island lavender is a very choice acro.

i only have the chips, as i cant bring myself to buy the roscoes yet...

i've seen both side by side in several different tanks, and i can only see a VERY subtle difference...

but IMO...i already have like 3 other acros that are an aqua green color with blue tips and hairy polyps....why buy another ya know?

Yeah I know :) I bought the roscoes on impulse at a lfs for something like $29 before it was officially named by ora. Actually, it arrived to the lfs labled as "Tort?". The only difference in the roscoes and a couple of other bushy acros I have is the green base color vs the white base color of my others. Still, I love my chips!
