I’ve invalidated your work. The bottom left one is a frag peeking through the hole in the rack below it.

The rr pink floyd looks much better in the above picture, than on your website?
It depends on where the cut is. The old pic I still use on my website is mostly the newer growth tips on the edge of the colony and are mostly white. As the colony matures, the inner branches get the color you see in the frag I posted. I’ve seen this a lot in colonies that have that tabling/semi-tabling form. Edge branches are mostly white, assuming much quicker growth so perhaps zooxanthallae don’t keep up in those growth tips, then as it becomes towards the center more has the more standard coloration.

exactly what I was gonna say, but I didn't wanna steal your thunder..... :D, and I had a hard time putting together words for differentiating the growing branches vs "mature" branches.

the coral frags are cool, BUT look at that CSB farm!!! ;Woot
how come you don't have that listed on your website? not that I have the bank account to afford one....and no I already sold my "spare" kidney to this hobby, don't even think of suggesting that.

My gonis oddly do grow decently for me. No clue why.

Double frag racks! Genius!
