My LFS has a couple kinda browned out frags for 32 bucks. Not many pics or comments around but kinda intriguing in the pics I can find. It looks like purple and deep red. Any experience?

I have one. still ahsnt colored up for me yet. I have it up high so I may need to lower it.

How long have you had it? I'd rather not have to wait a year to get color...

Since April. I need to take a look at it. It's not brown, just not showing the lighter colors.

From his site this is what it looks like. Mine hasnt really grown and it is in one of the highest sections of my tank in pretty good flow. it is basically the color of the corralites in this photo without the white in between. I may see about lowering it since it really hasnt encrusted at all either.
