My Tyree Tri-color is the same piece, and agree 100%, such a killer must have acro! I suspect most "blue" lovers miss the beauty that this coral has under full spectrum, lol :)
Nice pick up!

Thank you! I agree! I have a old skool tri color but it’s not really a deep smooth skin like this one.. and the polyps don’t pop like this one…

Yeah that’s beautiful! I know these start to grow like weeds when they’re happy! See what I can do with this frag… what’s crazy is out off all the stuff in my tank my eye is always drawn to my tubb’s Stella! That piece just pops and it’s fun!

I guess things are getting pretty cereal with this tank now! :zany-face: Gonna have to call geek squad to hook this thing up haha! I never test and hate testing so I figured this would be good to have as a base line since I already have the apex now.. traded a good friend of mine out some work and he hooked me up with a brand new one in the package!

Awww I wanted a picture with the lights off ;)
I really wanted a magnificent but they’ve been hard to find… a buddy of mine had this little guy in his sump and just gave him to me so I couldn’t say no! Now he’s got a nice big home! :D

Pretty amazing what topping off with kalk can do!!tanks holding these numbers strong and I’m not dosing anything else.. little bit of mag here and there by hand. I bought all for reef and used it for a week but it’s getting expensive so staying with kalk.. . been watching my ph Because I put them rocks in my display like 6 hours after a muratic acid bath haha! Worst it would do is lower my ph which it hasn’t so all is well!
