About LinkBacksThis is a frag I got from Chuck (MtnDewMan) last weekend at the PSAS meeting. I have it my 90 gal frag growout tank and it looks to be doing very well IMO.
Regards,
Kevin
PS: My camera won't take those fantastic closeups like Chuck's

Gene,
These are in my 90 gal growout tank. I'm getting ready to do some serious fragging in a couple of days. I need to pick up some super glue tomorrow. I will post some pictures when I get them mounted.

Kevin, that piece is looking good ...
Here is the momma colony for that piece.
Yes, I do believe they are lavender polyps.
Glad to see it made the journey okay Kevin. I want to see pictures of the other frags I gave you as well

Here's the other sweet frags I got from MtnDewMan. They are worth the 615 mile drive (IMO)

If you are interested in seeing the parent colonies of the last 3 pieces Kevin showed, here they are ...
Of the last 3 frags that Kevin showed, here are the parent colonies for the 1st and 3rd frag ...
The middle frag came from this small colony ...
And here is an idea of how these colonies look as a whole in the tank ...
