Today will be an odd pic. I didn't even know it was possible for zoas to grow onto something like this.

Zoas growing on the side of my Sea Cucumber.

I had a softball sized colony of the BC Rainbows in Spain (Spainbow) in my main display but the purple in the tips was always very faint. I cut off a couple branches and threw it in my frag tank and the purple on the tips is much darker. I always believed it was due to lower light levels in my frag tank. Since I couldn't move the colony in my display to lower light, I ended up taking out the colony and the rock it was grown onto.

Here is the one in my frag tank

You know, as I uploaded that green coral the other day asking what it was, I thought to myself "maybe I do like green corals" lol. I think as long as it's not solid green, I like it.

There is always something unique that catches our eyes. Whether it’s growth or polyp color. I know what you mean :)

SO PRETTY! I know you ordered a big pack from TCK a little while back... what are your thoughts overall? I always look when they post pictures of frag packs they are selling and I have a list of pieces that I would like to one day pick up from them. When I commented on their post I never got a response though.. out of curiosity what do you or anyone else that has done business with them think

Not sure if I can leave sponsor feed back here as they want you to in the feedback section, so I sent you a PM.

You’ve got me wondering what this is... no social media here lol
Its just a pack for sale. I posted it for sell on this forum also. I didn’t even want to cut them but it’s my wife’s birthday tomorrow and she thinks birthday equals vacation for some reason, lol. I needed some extra funds to make it happen, lol.

The first one seems so close to Original Wet Thumbs Tierra Del Fuego. I had seen it in person in a friend's tank years back and it looked pretty similar . I know many people have lots of tierra del fuego for sale but not many matches the original . If Ed is still around he can help as he has the most authentic WT del fuego ... @Big E you there ? Does it look tierra del fuego variant to you ?

Regards,
Abhishek

It's hard to tell from the pic what that is at that size. As it grows and tables out it's will be easier to tell as that's when the rainbow colors and distinct growth form really kicks in.

I have a canopy with t5's hanging above my tank so it's near impossible to get a full tank top down pic. Here is an actinic pic I took this morning before all lights came on that shows the left side of my tank.
