Looking for a specific blastomussa wellsi color morph...

[Jrlevers]

I was browsing thought coral pictures the other day and I came across this amazing color morph blastomussa wellsi called "Fist of Fury". Does anyone know where I can find a frag of this morph? Blastomussa are some of my favorite corals. Here is a pic.

Is this it by chance?
Australian Big Polyp Red Blastomussa (Blastomussa wellsi) - 6 POLYPS | Reefs2go.com

That looks remarkably similar but the colors are slightly different. It's a very cool blasto.

It sure is.... I just recently discovered these corals. I am certainly going to be adding a couple to my nano shortly.....gotta find the right ones :tongue:

I have a blue and red blasto that looked rather sickly when I picked it up. Four months later the single polyp is huge and I noticed today that it has sprouted 7 more heads at the base. By far my favorite corals.

I have a really nice one that I love. It swells up but it hasn't spit off any new heads yet. It's been 6 months. I have it glued to my rock from its base though. Wonder if that's it?

Cool blasto! They are some cool corals.

From what I see on my blasto it sprouts new polyps from the flesh below the main polyo on the skeleton. I feed mine mysis weekly and it has taken off.

that "Fist of Fury" is amazing. I am partial to the Blasto's too and would definitely add that one to my tank if you can find more. Where did you learn about it and get the picture from?

I was trying to research optimal feeding for improved growth rates in blastos and came across this page.

There are a couple of cool color morphs shown here. Unfortunately chalices are the flavor of the months and no body is propagating unique blasto color morphs.
