Here's another one... It's been growing more flat and long than tall.... The original piece was cut from the bottom of a colony so it was kinda dark purple/reddish colour... The new growth seems slightly lighter colour and the tips are more bluish purple.. The original growth polyps were all green as you can see in the pics.. The newer growth polyps are white...

The growth pattern on the nana looks much thinner.. It could be just the water flow or lighting conditions but this one is really short and fat growth...

Are you talking about the third pic? That growth still looks quite thin?

But room for a change of mind when much bigger if need be.
