Great color, especially in that first pic. Here's mine, 9 gorgeous heads of powder blue.

I have had it for about 4 months.

reefwick · #3 09/20/2005, 05:03 PM

Here's mine. Got two kinds.

Young frag. About 1 1/2 months at the time.

Sorry about the size

MIKE NY · #9 09/21/2005, 07:48 AM

Bcollins111900......thanks, that pic was taken a few months ago under 14ks.

MarksReef · #10 09/21/2005, 07:54 AM

Here are 2 out of 4 that I have.

Blazer88 · #11 09/21/2005, 08:04 AM

Ha, I just noticed they have a specific forum for LPS. Here is my frag that I just picked up for $25, not a bad score.

tekknoschtev · #12 09/21/2005, 08:11 AM

Those are the same coral, one picture just at night when they are hungry-as always.

We got those back in... march was it... and it was 3.5 small heads (one was splitting, hence the .5) now its 5.5 heads (picture is a litle outdated).

kbmdale · #13 09/21/2005, 04:13 PM

WOW you guys, they are all awesome!

Mike NY, I have to agree, yours are the prettiest I have seen. I was mainly looking to see colors, as I would like another, only a different color.

Thanks for the compliments on mine, I'm very proud that my "rescue" mission worked!

ANYMORE????

gotfish, I just purchased a 2 head frag that looks exactly like your flourescent yellows. I don't have a pic yet. Just out of curiosity, did you get yours as a captive raised frag or wild?

reeferkeith - I think with those awesome pics you're going to be my Yoda. They're killer!

Mikkel · #18 09/22/2005, 03:20 PM

In a different light

Mrs.kbmdale · #19 09/22/2005, 03:22 PM

Oh, thats a nice night shot!

what kind of moonlights do you have?

Brianna

Mikkel · #20 09/22/2005, 03:41 PM

The picture was taken under the single 30w T8 Sylvania Coralstar that I use for about 30 minutes before it's LED's only (DIY moonlights). There's something very zen about sitting in front of the tank with a cold beer 'round midnight watching the fish settling in for the night and the night critters coming out

plaereef · #21 09/22/2005, 04:08 PM

You guys definately confirmed my new fondness of candy canes. Killer pixs guys.

143gadgets · #22 09/22/2005, 06:46 PM

Here's mine.

Thanks Brianna

skippy2 · #23 09/22/2005, 08:25 PM

Here are 2 of mine

and the other 1

glaudds · #24 09/22/2005, 10:51 PM

Here's mine....going to need to lower it in the tank, it's outgrowing its spot.

Mrs.kbmdale · #25 09/22/2005, 10:58 PM

Not a prob 143gadgets

My picture taking may not be the best, or even good at times

but I sure do love to show off what I do have

Peggy, that one is GREEEEN!!!! very nice pics everybody, keep em coming.... does anyone have pics at night when they are all bloated looking with feeder tentacles out in full force?? or moonlight shots?? ANY pics of ya'lls would be great, since I've seen a few Trumpets as well, I'll post mine tomorrow. Oh, and how fast have all of yours grown? Maybe cuse both mine were "near dead" when I got them, but they haven't started reproducing or splitting yet....patience is the name of the game though huh?
