I have struggled with pics on this but it has turned out to be pretty cool with very vibrant blue tips. View attachment 1279824


OOOH nice! yeah that frostbite was super cool. Hate to be saying that in the past tense but I totally lost my colony last spring. Would love to see any pic you could muster:)

It’s a little reassuring to know that even the experts have occasional losses :).

I like to refer to it as the "illusion of grandeur". The struggle is real, believe me.

Hmmm... top 3-5?

Over half my corals are from Adam but I know the names of around... 2? ;Sorry

DSC_0024.jpg

This is a.. umm.. millipora from Adam. It's actually quite a bit bigger now, this is from July. No idea the name but it looks amazing.
Close up of the same coral.

This is a top down shot of my Yellowhammer. Not at all what it was supposed to look like but it's beautiful. I'm guessing my nutrients were too high.

And the BC Secale. Started out as a very fast grower but has slowed down now.

I’m gonna assume Adam puts a higher price tag on his favorites so I would guess the most costly acros.

Not necessarily true in fact. The higher-priced pieces are more reflective of a super limited supply, or painflly slow growth rates. My pricing scales are based more on that than anything really.

I've alwys said the old shades of fall is in my top 5 for sure and it's one of my most frequent freebies lol. If I had huge sprawling colonies of the hungs rainbow it would be a freebie. Guaranteed. I was sending red dragon freebies out many years ago, when everyone else was still gouging it heavily! MY customers couldn't believe their eyes.

I can see that. Your vivid confetti is priced well below market value but it’s also a fast grower.
