Topic: Cool Acros Posted: October 15 2004 at 7:02pm |
Marine-Aquatics just got in some nice acro's. They arent frags but whole colonies.
They wanted me to post this one that I just bought from them.
Does anyone else have a pink tabletop acro, How fast do they grow?

Brad - I agree. I just bought 2 colonies from them as well. They are still acclimating so I can't post pics. They are both AWESOME though. I got a baby blue tenuis and a pink/purple with green polyps tricolor that's awesome. Their prices are awesome too! I highly recommend them!

I agree! They should become even better looking once they settle down to their new enviroment, It was perfect timeing to go in there when I did, they had just put them in their new display tank. Lucky us.  I'll wait for pics!!

Brad, you are getting some gorgeous corals. You should make your pictures bigger so we can be even more jealous.

BTW - I just got back from Brad's house and I believe that to be Acropora Clathrata which is sold on www.reeffarmers.com for 100.00 a frag. It's a very nice coral!

Brad, I have a water sign from the zodiac chart, too. I think a 12 step program is a good idea. These corals are just too nice - they make me become a covetous person. I am pretty sure that's bad.

Hey Corey, When you're finished at Sean's house, you might as well head a little further south to mine .
We had a mini type tour here around 1 oclock today, Sean was here and David Carrol and Dmanshep all here at once, it was great, we sat and talked fish-reef stuff for about 45 minutes. Very nice people, Sean knows most of the corals by their real name and that amazes me. IT WAS FUN!!

Corey - It's http://www.reeffarmers.com/limitedclathrata.htm
The one shown in the picture is faded out and grows more in flat form. The one Brad has is more vertical, but has the exact coralites and same branching formations. There are a bunch of species that I'm not familiar with, but I'm sure thinking that it's Clathrata.
I'm a real when it comes to knowing SPS latin names! LOL
