One Acro to rule them all?

[Science/G]

Now that my reef has settled in with my new reef breeders meridian lights, and some corals have been relocated, I have some space available. I have a really nice center hotspot that ranges from 250 to 275 most of the day, and maxes our for 4 hours at 325+ par. That spot gets significant flow as well.
The tank is a mature and growing mixed reef. What I don't have is a signature, high end Acropora. My wife likes the CC Pink Highlighter, I am in love with the JF Homewrecker. I have room for a frag or two to grow out into a small colony. I am looking for some recommendations from the community. Please include some pics of your specimens and growth patterns if possible.

Thanks in advance,
Frank

I am a big fan of the Walt Disney

 

[Reefer Matt]

BigR Walt Disney is my fav.

 

[Bartanto]

I’ve got my eye on a Walt…Look at Battle Corals Laser Melon, Inland’s Cyclops, orange blast (or any BC piece that strikes your fancy. Bk chem fruit loops. CC Bahama mama is classically awesome.

I think you could struggle to pull pink out of homewrecker without 400 par. I vote sc orange passion. Acrolandia, vivid insanity,

My main three collector's frags: Big R Walt Disney, RRU Angry Birds and JF Homewrecker.
I only lack RRU Angry Birds at this point for this set.

The next amazing one I'd want is POTO Queen's Gambit

Yeah Big R Walt Disney but SC Orange Passion is pretty awesome too

Amazing! Those are two Acros I have drooled over in the past. I had a WD that just sat and wouldn't grow at all for me at 175 par. I eventually lost it using gfo to reduce some phosphates. What a shame

Thanks for the tip. I would certainly rather have a piece that is happy and fully colored up than one that is just me.

Matt so you think I can have success with a WD at around 300 par?

A true CC PINK HIGHLIGHTER is hard to beat.

My wife loves it! Can I get nice colors out of it with my meridian and T5 combo? Go Canes!

I don't know what a meridian is? I'm running halides and t5s with a reefbrite strip. I will say he won't grow as fast as a Disney but it's a fun one to watch.

I do. That’s my colony, and it’s in 300 par via Apogee mq510 meter. That pic was taken a few months ago.

So you and I have probably crossed paths. I've know Karen and Bob Elder of Exotic Aquariums for over thirty years. I worked there for a bit while at UM
