Guys I started this thread to log the progress from a frag, not to make money selling a coral. This coral has grown quite large because I haven't fragged it much. I will sell frags of this coral and others in my tank like I normally would when my colonies grow too large, but keep in mind this isn't a f/s thread. I will respond to pm's and try my best to accommodate :) Keep in mind that no one has been able to keep color under any lighting other than 250w and 400w radium as of yet. Hopefully that changes.
Anyway :) After seeing that WD tenuis it motivated me to try a blue LED pic. I have no idea how he gets the images to come out so awesome. Here's the best I could get under a blue reefbrite. I kind of believe that these corals may be the same, just images captured differently. I eventually have to trade frag with Aquanut to see the difference :)

Great looking stuff guys, I too would love to be added to this long list. There has to be a few people out there growing this out now. Judging from a certain auction I am watching this thing is in very high demand.

Sorry got confused on the two pieces on the last couple of pages and just made a general coment. Needless to say yours is a very cool coral, I would love to have a small piece in my DT.

The one at a crazy high price on FB!!! Maybe you can put me on a list for later down the road on your grow out of WD.
Thank you! Took two years to get this color. Good things dont happen over night in this hobby.
Jackson, I have a 265 display which holds the WD mother colony. Running 100% LEDs. In addition, I have a 80g deep blue frag tank with an ATI 6 bulb and 24 Cree Royal Blue Leds running on two 1050ma drivers plummed into the same system. The recent pics are Wds grown under mainly T-5 with the Cree RB leds as supplement. I can tell you the lighting does change the color a bit. The T-5 adds a more distinct pink hue.
This coral generates green PE out the tips and yellow out of the coralites. Not the same. I have SC Orange Passion and they are different.
Nice!
The demand is overwhelming
Enjoy.

+1 This is not a FS thread.
Nice pic Jackson. I use a T2i DSLR mainly with porthole and also have a canon underwater camera.
I still want a frag of yours jackson. Great job coloring it up.
No more lists. Too much demand at the moment. Thx

Thanks. Photoperiod is 7 hrs MH, and 10hrs T5, Blue LED 12hrs. I lowered this colony down to give it more growth room. It's currently getting 500 PAR directly under the halide.

I am going from a 250w Radium to a 400w when the bulb arrives. Would have never tried a 400W on a 70G if It was not for your thread. I lost a few colonies midway down and I suspect it was from lack of PAR.
