Orange pink like on the floor ? That’s BC Gilligan .
Yes the OT is growing pretty good but slow .

The BC Gilligan is great but I was actually referring to the one on the frag tank to the right of the millepora . Unless that's also the BC Gilligan?

Wow! Just beautiful corals, very nice colors and so healthy looking ! Thanks for sharing.

This one. Looks like a granulosa/loripes and I bet it will look great grown out!

Thats is my prized possession ! DFS Pink Panther sourced from BattleCorals . The slowest growing acro ever that I have encountered .
Makes my Oregon Tort look like a green slimmer in terms of pace of growth lol !

How long have you had it?

 

[Abhishek]

How long have you had it?

I would say 5-6 months I suppose and it has just encrusted over the frag plug .

I didn’t know he had it available so recently.

I didn’t know he had it available so recently.

No he lost his colony long back. It came from a friend of mine who had a frag growing into a colony. The frag was sourced from Adam .

Had a salinity swing with my tunze malfunctioning while I was away . Lost a couple of large colonies of BC Ultimate table and BC Nilborg resident .

However , now things are back to normal . For all zoa and paly lovers -

WWC taser although I think these are psychosis . I had a friend come over and offer me 600 for the colony with over 50-60 heads . I have no idea on zoa pricing so said NO as I really love these . They glow even with my halides on .

Anyone here can tell me how much a colony of 50-60 heads of these should go for ?

Regards,
Abhishek

Hey guys, if you think the video looks great. You need to see it in person. The video doesn't really give it the justice that it deserves. I was over a few weeks ago and the colors are more vivid.

So my travel has stopped finally .

Back to full time reefing of course I still do have a job to go o

Tank has suffered from a salinity swing which killer my Battlecorals grape juice although I was able to save a couple of other battle corals ultimate table and nilborg resident .

Nothing has changed much other than 4 royal grammas and a Ushio 400 K 14 K bulb .

Why didn’t I run Ushio previously is the million dollar question ??? Thanks to @aquavista99 fir the suggestion .
It’s a little purple but I simply love how the blues looks . My Oregon tort looks out of the world .

Running out of space !!! Getting ready to setup the new tank soon .

Enough of talk . Here’s the tank :-

A beauty from Tim @aquavista99 - raging bull . I believe it’s a prostrata and needs extreme high flow and light to shine . Or else’s tends to dull a bit . Also extremely difficult it has been to colorup for me . Like 1-1.5 years and now only it shows color .

The AV99 Raging Bull is one of the nicest sticks in the hobby in my opinion. It’s stunningly nice and yours looks amazing too!

Honestly , I was apprehensive about it . But when when I think , it’s just one of those that needs time and nothing else .

Also am not sure if it’s with my lights , but when I had 250 watts , it surely didn’t look close enough . It’s the 400 watt warm light that makes it look so special .

Am just glad I could save a small frag and have it grow .

Thank you Tim !

Bro, that OT looks amazing, and the rest ofcourse. It's so freaking blue!

It was nice meeting you yesterday . Yeah blues and purples are some of the perks of running a lower kelvin metal halide bulb with non fluorescent protein acros

Battlecorals Aqutic man table :-

I can’t believe how fast it grew as it was less than an inch or 3/4 like 5 months back I think. That’s probably my fastest growing acro
