The rose color is almost translucent but I'm interested to see if they color up any now that they appear to be happy they where in sump for a solid year with hardly any light.
The other one is a flouresecent green on cap and tips.
What kind of coral is that guy again?
Lol
Ok
I’m outside (sunny)
New glasses.
Second pic next to the Shroom?

Black sun is what I’m thinking.
All the ones I’ve seen previous are branching. You probably want to get rid of it since it’s not a Shroom.
Take it with you when you go to Frank’s.
I’ll buy it and do another meet up with Jason.

Let me work on the wife with that one. I just briefly ran it by her and she looked like she wanted to punch me in my face hahahaha. Can it be fragged? I need to remove the shroom anyway. Wont open on the shrooms side but I see the polyps. Every now and then it will catch my mysis size amphipods and eat its pretty cool. The rose corals are same way. The one rose coral I posted actually does have 3 or 4 new heads forming around the big one.

A pro could probably frag it.
I’m not comfortable fragging any stony I have to cut through tissue.
Don’t make the wife mad. I could send a leopard Shroom back with Jason for her if she agrees to a sell.
last post. Battery on phone is red lined.
Cya. :cool:

I definitely understand the addiction. Only 4 months into a 225g and already thinking of starting more including thinking starting a frag system in back room.
Lol its totally a thing. I didn't have tank 2 functional and was already gearing wife up for a 180! I do need to put brakes on, dial these tanks and get them filled though haha!

I ain’t never seen a galaxia with that extension and it was lightless/low light for awhile and it’s still rocking.
Could have sworn you called it something else back in the day.
Started out as a tiny white little nub when I took it out of sump. The nub has probably quadrupled in size and yessir it sat in sump with a 24w daylight cfl over it. Same with rose corals popping up. Does have some awesome PE on it. Def prefers low light I think it most likely is a sun coral. Its more like burgundy with flourescent green fingers and tips.

Dishes are done man. Not too happy with how bright it looks hopefully these discs get some age on them pretty quick. Thinking about black sand to break it up if I can't stand looking at it too long. Really accentuates how barren the tank actually is haha. Need to get it covered with MOAR shrooms now.
Got flow where I wanted it though. Powder brown is in tank 2 with puffy now. Baby tang and clown are just chilling happy checking out new digs:D

Lol yes but gulf rock hitchiker version! I've seen people post very similar hitchikers but there's always have colors. Your in luck with that one its budding 3-4 new heads and there's a few more popping up but they all have color and not as much PE.

Well this kinda blows my whole skipping the cloudy water bacterial bloom in tank 2. I ended up using a little more than 50/50 old system and new salt mix.
Added Powder Brown, a zoa rock, pulsing xenia yesterday and boom cloudy water!
Flip side and im not really sure why but my wife's phone takes some amazing pictures and videos so was at least nice looking at tank 1 haha

I had a pretty good one with upgrade but knocked it out with UV. I'm not considering these as horrible. I'm sure its some kind of water column cycle but going to hook the uv up tomorrow if it doesn't correct itself.
