Man, this is going to be a sweet piece when it grows out. I'm looking forward to seeing how it continues to color up. I want one, but don't have the cash right now.

Happy to have you following along. I'm going to do my best to take a new pic every week for the foreseeable future so by the time you get a frag you will know what your getting

I don't have a normal display tank so I don't usually take FTS. It's more of a frag tank gone wild. I don't get rid of frags until I have no more room left and then I have a few friends that help with that part. I had the great idea of raising my alk a few months back and it didn't have the desired effect I browned out about half the tank so it's not at it's best right now but getting better.

Im going to have to go raid you tank soon. I'll take my camera also. Just don't tell carlos cause he will start crying like a little girl.

Josh you are welcome to come over anytime especially with your camera. I didn't know you knew how to take pictures of SPS

but if you take pictures of my coral and people see them they might realize how bad my pictures are. I'd take the rick just to see you post some SPS pics

The frag is old growth and I haven't seen anything resembling a growth tip yet, I'm with you on the tips showing color first but only if there is new growth on them and I'm not sure this frag will start growing from the frag but more likely it will encrust until growth tips start from the base
