New Yellow Piece - Carolina?

[jay24k]

Picked up a sweet acro colony. To me it almost looks like a carolina but I can't recall off the top of my head what they had it named. I'll have to check the receipt. I couldn't get a great picture of it, but it is literally a blinding yellow similiar to a pastel. It's been in the tank for about 2 months so the color hasn't shifted since then.

Now if I could find some room.

I find it somewhat difficult to find yellow corals beside milli's and plating ones. I think that is one of my favorite colors.

They had one like that which was more green. Beautiful piece as well. How is the growth on it speed wise?

Jay I have it mid to bottom and it grows slow compared to other critters.

"deepwater" kind of growth. HTH.

[jay24k]

Thanks. I have it about halfway and I'll see how the color shifts in my tank. Hopefully it keeps the nice yellow.

Very nice! Where did you get it?

Got it at a fish store in Tampa, FL. I'm from the Orlando area so I thought I'd stop at a few fish stores while I was at a Microsoft conference. Price wasn't bad at all considering the size. Now just to look for some more pinks now.

[jay24k]

Fish and other ichthy stuff. It is in oldsmar. They have quite a bit of corals. There was two other pieces there that looked really nice but they do have alot of smaller frags of stuff also.

I picked up the other one. Here she is.

[jay24k]

Did you get that the other day? or today? You were able to capture some of its sheen. It almost is a glowing yellow.

here is my A. caroliniana, grown from a frag from maximus

[sunkool]

I was there yesterday around 1:00
He had 2 of them. Mine is more on the yellow/green side. almost like neon. If I can figure out how to work the white balance on the camera I will take a better shot.

[jay24k]

Ok I picked mine up at 4 pm. I can see where it isn't a carolina. I will try to get a top down shot because front view just doesn't give it justice. That is a nice piece too twon. If you ever decide to frag it, let me know.
