does anyone else have this piece and have pictures of its colors or colony pictures? i currently have a small frag of it that's been in my tank for about a month or so. small growth and still getting its colors.

@TopShelfAquatics would really love to see some updated pictures of this!
 
I found this with a quick google search. Looks like a beauty. I might have to pick up a frag myself!

yeah i'm aware of the ones that show up with a search. was hoping to get a more "live" presentation of the colors in other reefers' tanks.
 
Was just looking at mine, and I always have to look online at TSA's photo to remember what it "should" or "could" look like. I've had it for a couple of years now, and it really took off the last few months. It was just that large blob in the center forever. I tried what you did a year ago, which is look for hobbyists' photos. Here's mine, though it wouldn't take much convincing if people said it's not their Tesla and maybe I mixed it up over the years. I've lost many a frag in the past and was like "What was that again?"
Though if i were a betting man I'd say this is the one i bought from Top Shelf Aquatics. Almost certain...

i actually do agree that it could definitely be the tsa tesla!

my piece is still a nub. actually almost lost it a few months back and it has since stayed alive and very slowly bouncing back!

That is 100% the TSA Tesla.
 
Cool, thanks guys. I like it anyway, and prefer a little whiter lighting to see the beautiful colors on all my fish as well. I like the all white polyps on this piece, too. Happy reefing!
 
I have this coral too. For about a year and it looks like my TSA Optimus prime. But they are both still small

I will have to take a more recent picture. They haven’t grown upwards much. Encrusted and stayed about the same color.
