    Thanks Scott! Actually I am sure this time, I was fortunate enough to get a tour of a wholesaler in Lansing, and I was able to hand pick this one. They had about 6-8 frags, and one colony. These were not on the list of available corals, but I was able to convince them to sell me one!

    Hmmm... now that the tank is full, I could convert the pool to saltwater...

    Congrats, Mike! Those are sweet looking frags and I wish you the very best with them. The tort is a real thing and a good sized frag...
    Kind regards,

    Gene.

    Thanks Bubba, the frames are easy to do.

    Yes the Tort is a good one, hopefully I can get it to take of for me. I like that purple/green one too, it will be very cool if it stays that color. I'll have to post some updates on the other frags I bought, because they have REALLY changed color.

    Thanks Charlie!

    Let's hope that I am thru with SPS losses, I don't want to lose anymore, like my Milli or A. Yongei. Tank parameters are all showing good, so I am holding up my part, they need to do their part and GROW!

    As the old addage goes, you are just gonna have to be patient!! The tort IME, has been the slowest grower in my system. Just find a spot it likes, and let it go. Good luck.

    Ya I figured it was a slow grower, they said at the wholesaler that the COLONY this frag came from was there for about 2 years, and it was only 4" across, MAYBE! I have at about 20" depth right now, and my lights are about 7-8" off the water, it gets excellent flow where it is, so we will see.

    I know mine likes the good flow too. I don't have a pic of it handy. I'll try to dig one up when I get home from work later today.

    Very nice Mike! I used to have the one you labeled unusual but lost it during my rtn event. Do you have an id? Mine was more of a pink...if it's not the same it's very close
