Here's my M. cap--it's every big as huge as the one mentioned above--it spans on the side glass of my 65 from nearly one edge to the other and that's 18 inches...so it probably about 15" that way and 8 outward...And this baby has been fragged many times, almost in half--I cannot imagine how huge it would be now...

Well that tank is borderline insane--the next step to the actual ocean...tanks like that duplicate the wild in growth and formation of corals...

The Cap in the center is 14" by 14" and the Hydnopora in the same spot is now the same size.






For a comparison to show natures supremacy these are each several square feet.

I lost this purple rim in a crash two years ago, but have restarted it from some that I had given a friend. It was over 12x12 at that time.

Here are a couple of my frags. They were both less than 3" when I got them The first one (A. microphthalma) measured 30"x21" tall. I broke many of the branches trying to get it out of the tank.

The second one (M. capricornis) is 33"Lx18"W.

Regards,
Kevin

Kevin,
I've seen that picture of your A. microphthalma before and I have to say, it honestly scares me.
