Hey does anyone on here have a frag of the RR D-Day they could post a picture of? I am really interested to see it out in "the wild." I saw a few people pick them up at the Live Sale, so there must be a few out and about.

Really interesting piece that isn't getting much exposure.

Here are the pictures from an Aquanerd blog post:

I've got a frag, I don't have any photos but it's not remarkable at this point. Kind of a monotone blue/purple.

here are a couple pics of the D-Day. Top down and side view. You can see the purple polyps and yellow coralites. The body is more purple than blue but probably because i was hitting it with some serious par for a good while before i lowered it. I can't wait for this one to reach its full potential. Sorry I couldn't get closer on the top down, I only have a 35mm-80mm zoom lens with my dslr and porthole. its about half way down in my 180.

Thankyou. Looks like it has potential. Wonder if it will come close to the Photo.

Yes I agree, it shows great potential to being what the original pics showed. I'll see if I can borrow a better lens and get. Little closer on the top down.
