Unfortunately I have lost a colony while ago, but a few frags are floating in the hobby.
Some of ours are smaller than others. This is what I have left. Thank god I accidentally broke my original

Since I've seen JF Jolt mentioned a few times.....

Do you think the Jolt is the same coral as the TSA Rainbow Fusion? I've had one of each for about 9 months. When I first got them I thought they looked a little different but they are looking more and more alike as they grow. (I'll post pics when I get a new camera). I wouldn't say they are slow growers. I've already fragged the frags a couple of times. (I'm using halides which might make a difference).

How do you like the halides??? I have t5 or3 combo. Crazy growth. But the colors are alil flat for me.

So bright!!!
Is the last one FrootLoops? Is it just me or does Frootloops look the same as # 10 on your list, TSA Sour Twist
You are correct, it's Frootloops. I havent seen Sour Twist in person yet so it made my list. TSA is a 2.5 hour drive from me and I go there from time to time.

Pink Lemonade
Fox Flame
GARF Bonsai
Oregon Tort
Purple Slimer
Red Planet
Red Dragon
Ice Dragon
PC Rainbow

I don’t have a 10th (Still hunting) and actually only own one of these on the list. My main 3 are;
PC rainbow
Purple Slimer
Pink Lemonade
My list has changed over the past few months and now it’s;
- Pink Lemonade
- PC rainbow
- Red Planet
- Seriatopora hystrix
- Seriatopora caliendrum
- Pearlberry
- Seriatopora stellata
- Red Digitata
- Tricolour Valida
- Sunset Montipora

My main must haves are for sure any Seriatopora. In my SPS tank, I have 3 growing out (I’m not 100% sure on their species but believe I have a Hystrix, Caliendrum and maybe a Stellata). I absolutely love my newest pieces as one of them is real and the other goes through 3 totally different colour stages in just 1 day - all 3 stages can be seen in the photo; Blue, Green & Pink.
