Yeah, the jury still is out on if there is such thing as a red sun coral! Even if I can't get mine "red" again, I'm happy with the deep peachy pink color it is Qckwzrd, mine took about a month before I couldn't really call it red anymore, just deep pink. The whole thing just gradually got lighter and lighter. I did touch it by accident when I was still putting it in a feeding bowl to feed, and the red color never came off on my hands, though I did puncture the tissue and the skeleton showed I did the same thing to my black sun coral, and have never seen the color come off.

Kreeger, wow, you have T. micrantha. How's that doing for you? They're supposed to be the hardest of the tubastrea to keep.
