Wow those first ones glow! they look alot like Miguels Angel Eyes (the Third picture in this post)... Is that third morph as orange as it looks? the orange one looks almost minuta? or Favia? does it swell up like your other micros when its not being stung?

Those pink, green, and yellow ones is are brighter then Miguels Angel Eyes. No offense to Miguels. His are nice too, and I've seen them in person. These are alot brighter.

The ones that got stung haven't completely recovered. The orange used to be red. When I first got them they were red and green. But I only have them for a bout a week then they got stung. I've been trying to bring them back for a couple of months now.

I wanted to buy some of Miguels, but he didn't want to sell any last time I was there.

I'd still buy a frag from him. He told me to wait a couple of months.

Hey Louis,
I forgot about that one. I got a 4 polyp frag of that in September 2004.

It was mainly red with white stripes when I got it.
As it's grown, the color has changed.

January 2005


March 05, feeders out


Top down, showing ring of new flesh.


April 2005 closeup of polyp pressed against the glass

Cool, Randy....The color of this Micro is quite amazing especially when its polyps are disturbed....I also got another nice Micro sp. about two years ago from the same source (not sure if you bought it too) and now its small colony reveals pretty nice color...I need to borrow my bro's pro camera to capture its real color...

Before




Three weeks later, color returning & hey someone has stripes. Not sure yet what color they are green or grey/blue. In another few weeks the color should be back fully.

Yeah it's been eating like a pig & the color is coming back slowly. The ugly green on is one of my faves it has some of the biggest polyps I have ever seen. I have had that blue linka for about three years now slow dripped em over 24hrs.
