here's mine. Grew to this from a 3/4" frag in about 14 months.

BTW, I love how every thread about this coral inevitably involves at least one post, usually more, of someone not getting the hype, don't think it's that nice of a coral, have regular purple corals that look much better in their opinion, and/or don't think it is worth the money. Please understand.... we have heard it a million times. Some people like to collect designer corals, some of us will pay for those we like, regardless of lineage, and others like to avoid the "popular" pieces and bash those who do not share their philosphy. I say, to each his own.

I just don't get it with you people. Spending that much money on corals just doesn't make any sense. You all need to wake up and smell the coffee.




































Just kidding of course.


Here is mine may it also rest in peace.


Here it was at its most colorful point.

So why is this coral rare and expensive? Because of its color?

It's color, unique shape (branches are thick and shaped like a christmas tree) and that it grows so slow, thus making supply small.
