!!!THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY:(

[Abhishek]

Now you have brought back painful memories Adam . Lost tank to the dreadful AEFW 7-8 years back when I hardly knew what they were and sworn never ever to keep reef tank again .

Indiscriminately bought acros from anyone possible to have caused it .

But once a reefer always a reefer !

Some like OG purple monster I can get again today but will be another 5 years till they grow into colonies .
But some like sapphire millepora and pink panther - not sure if I can get them anywhere again from trusted sources

Wish I had some pics of them .

Regards,
Abhishek

I had to tear this done in 2014. I am currently trying to build a new system but wow. This was nice. Lots of Adams corals were in there.

My WWC SOTR Milli. Terrible pic, but it was the only one I could find of it. It was a beautiful coral.

Man, I think we may have all lost that one. That guy might actually really disappear completely someday lol. Mines been gone for years. Was a great looking milli though. Way better than average.

I lost my gonzo cookie monster after I failed to test my parameters. it fought a good battle but ultimately died right before I got everything stable. now I'm back on the hunt for a piece.

Thing is I know the pics already. I remember the tank, and it's a serious heartbreaker, but Can you try to re-upload them. They didn't show up in your original post unfortunately

Just a little encrusted frag left of WWC SOTR!!! Man , such a finicky and slow grower for me but glad it's still alive . If I loose this , I might never find it .

Wwc has a colony in their 900 I believe. I'm sure you can buy frags

ARC oil spill. Pretty sure it's gone from the hobby now

 

[Rakie]

I called him Snozberry. The bluest blue I ever saw. Put Oregon tort to shame.

Right, middle of tank -- The insanely blue thing.

Orange Creme. I has a baby nublet I'm growing out finally

Powder Blue. Mid Left -- Pictures never did this coral justice. NO matter what i tried, it just looked meh in photos but it looked stellar in person. Loved the growth pattern too.

20k Lokani. He was just a baby !!

 

[hollback]

My 30K Lokani. RIP

Lost this one in Tank move it melted away

 

[Murr7]

Lost this frag after 8 months of coloring up from a brown stick just started to get bright red polyps at the base, but this was the first frag taken by aefw.

 

[Deaf clown]

This guy. Grew out from a frag to this and three different tank transfers in a year. Not the biggest colony ever or the best growth but for one of my first sps corals I was proud of it. I never remembered the name to it (not a tri color valida-I had two colonies of those and had more blueish green than purple like this guy) BTW this was taken under 10k 250 watt mh
