Following, very cool and I wish I could have got in on this. You guys ever seen reddish sps turn green and then back to red?

This one does it all the time several of my frags of it are pure green right now while others are red.

It's that time again:
*slight angle to see the wannabe branch on the left*
Vibrant color with nice "Firecracker" effect going on. It WANTS to start branching...

Sorry for the late submissions. March has been flying by and was out of town all weekend. Finally set the plug on my rocks, a little more encrusting growth but not much. Pics are with an Iphone 6 so it leaves alot to be desired as far as quality.

This one just seems to be a slow grower. Granted it hasn't been THAT long, but I'm impatient

 

[Ghxst]

How long did it take you to grow that double fist size colony @scchase?

Here is my last submission pre Reef Ed.

This has been a blast to participate in.

I am loving this coral with every update. I don't know if it has grown much but who cares.

Top Down is always washed out but at least you can see the yellow spots easier.

One fun pic with a new phone macro lens that only cost $15.

I've enjoyed this growout the most. The colors this acro has gotten since the beginning has been enjoyable to watch. It seems to be a slow grower but it would be nice to see what everyones looks like in a year from know.

Bdk, yours looks great!

Hmm that’s odd I’m not seeing my post from last night. Here’s my submission not much growth for me.

 

[Bdk1786]

This one seems to definitely be a heavy encruster in the beginning for sure.
