Another favia tucked away in the sand. This one seems to grow pink and green and then shifts to a swirl of other colors as it matures.

Ya solid green

To be honest, I was surprised to see some hints of pink in mine this early. I assumed it was something that would show when the piece gets some size and starts to mature. If you look at Adam's pics it looks like the pink is much more vibrant on the growing branches than the base. That might be because the polyps are so very bushy too though. I don't think I would get too discouraged quite yet.

I've seen a few different shades of color to contrast the green on the Bleeding Tree in pics online. Cherry Corals had a few that looked like the skin was light blue instead of pink. Is yours green throughout?

I believe the light blue is just pink in normal lighting. I think it’s just the way it’s photographed and what light it is under. But if one really has blue in it I might just have a new favorite coral! I just wish more people would try to keep abros so we had more than one or two vendors supplying frags.

I'm not sure what this is going to grow into as there aren't any pictures of the original piece anywhere. Very unique so far.

I received a coral from Adam and I couldn't remember the name of it. I noticed over time it started to look absolutely amazing so I messaged adam a pic and he said possibly red scare. I am curious to see how yours looks as it gets larger as yours is the only pic I have seen of the red scare.

This one has the slightest bit of orange highlights mixed in to give it a unique look.

Beautiful, Can't wait to see this one grow out more.
