For people that can see video, enjoy. It’s my WWC Allstar colony.

I have it posted on my IG account as well if you can’t see it here… with a side by side comparison to the Tyree Merlin’s Staff to see the differences.

Thank you! He's finally almost to adult form. This was him just 3 months ago!

The change happened a lot quicker than I would have imagined!

OMG, I miss my emp. When I can, 220g is in the play to get another. She loved to eat cloves and paly/zoas. Left torches, hammer alone.

Those CSB.. I could only hope my bta ever colors up like that. It has beautiful orange and lemon/lime green tips. The foot is speckled (I thought was an illness). And it changing colors weekly for me. Went from rose to burnt orange, and now metallic orange with lemon lime tops. Has no lineage. That isn't a big deal to me.

Love your work!

Loved my emperor… such personality and beauty. Had to let him go… once he got to a large adult size, acros were on the menu.

That sounds like an awesome nem. Got any pics?

This was this morning while he was waking up.

Emperors do get huge. And grow so quickly.

Edit: oh how the time flies. Time for lunch. Got wrapped up looking at these pages of awesome.
Over 5 years! So pleasant to see.

That’s a good looking nem!

Yeah, both my juvis went from 3-4” to 6-7” monsters in a little over a year. They are so beautiful it kills me that both when they went full size adult… started to snack on acros. I can give up the other corals in the tank but not my acros.
