The Underrated thread got me to reminiscing about corals past. one of my Favorites was this mystery nub I got from a local reefer. It the size of my thumb and all brown. we had no clue what it was.

Here it is shortly after i got it. it had started to grow some tips and a tiny bit of color. this was July 2011.

I have a couple of these now. Bargain bin frags :)

They are just starting to get a little color now. In a few months I'll have to do some comparison pics.
 
Classic Red Planet story. Got the frag for 15 bucks and did not know it was an RP.



Lindsey that looks like a Valida.

I sort of figured it was once it colored up. that is one thing I LOVE about Acropora, they can go from a brown little blob to something very pretty. I had many do that in my tank over the years.
 
Here is another that started as nothing special. I had no clue what it was. Wish i still had it.
