The wowzer is the bottom pic. It has the intense blue around the mouth. That is the big difference between the two. They look fantastic, good job!

Is that the only difference? Both picture are from the vendor, same vendor for both pic.

Looking at your pic, it seems the blue faded away. It was asked when these first came out if the blue was a function of lighting. As you van see in the vendors pics, only the polyps up,top have that color, not the ones underneath. So,is it an actual morph, or just changing the lighting to rename and reprice.

I believe it's an actual morph, but like most corals they need a good bit of light to keep the blue. I remember seeing these at a wholesaler before the vendor got it and they looked just like the bottom pic.

The wowsers are indeed a different morph, the red is actually a little more pinkish in the wowser. Below are my wowsers. I don't have Candy apple oranges but I do have several candy apple red morphs and CB bowsers. I'll try to post an actual side by side photo once I make some room. I need to move 200+ frags first out my 20g long frag tank or make a new frag rack lol.

Wowsers direct from SC - recieved 4 months ago, pic is about a 3 months from today
-daylight T5 and reefbrite xho blue leds


Pic taken about 3 weeks ago in all blue chinese/ebay LED

Thanks for the pics. They do look nice but I does seem that blue does not hold. Op has a mini colony fs and his pics don't have any of the blue either.

Yep, that blue is hard to hold. But my was under LED blast, so a bit morph for growth instead.

Ati actinic t5 and ati coral plus t5 with 24-3w chinese blue LED strip without optics in the middle of the t5's, the t5 have retrofit reflectors so plenty of light in my 20g long frag tank.
