I've had this one on the back burner for a while now. I finally added a page to the site for medium to small sized wysiwyg sps colonies.
(from the site)
The discouraging thing about buying colonies is that they more often than not will never look as good as they do fresh off the boat a few months to a year down the road. If they make it that long.
My intentions with new page is to provide established and considerably truer to captive color sps than fresh maricultures or wild stuff.
Every one of these has been through intense QT treatment and growing in a separate system for no less than six months. Most of them longer. They are a mix of wild aussie, figi and indo colonies as well as maricultures. The colors you see are a bit more realistic to captive grown sps and chances are good that they will color up better in your system.
The point of all this is that they have been in captivity long enough to shed the magical wild coloration you see in most colony pics for a truer to life representation of what they will actually look like in your tank. As well they have lived long enough in captivity that the threat of not acclimating is much less.
Now these aren't the pick of the litter "ultras" but for the price, if you're looking for something other than frags you can not go wrong. I will be adding new ones as well as soon as they become ready.
Colonies!
And if that doesn't grab you I have also added a few really nice new acros I have been growing out. Some of them for up to a year or more.
