Nicest Paly Ever!!!!

those look like button polyps with frostbites...:lol:
 
yikes......those previous pictures that are claimed not to have any actinics need some major MAJOR white balance and saturation correction then......

Not true. Mine look exactly like the original photo that Leishman posted of mine. No adjustments need here. I'll take a better pic if you all would like me to.
 
I gotta say, I don't exactly see these becoming a hot item in the hobby. They're pretty unique and I'd probably trade for them, but I could never see myself spending money on them unless they were really cheap.
 
Keep in mind that the frag I photographed was shipped, in the dark and out of a tank for almost 36 hours. I have a feeling that they will color up a bit after they are in my tank environment for a while longer. Then again they might not. I do see the lighter speckles in the polyp reflecting blue light.

There was fill flash used in the shot I took, but it is still an exact representation of what it looks like under my 14K’s at this time.

I'm basing what I said on all the photos in this thread. They're just not my thing I guess...

The owner of Atlantis is also Marvin. Two different people. I've only been to Atlantis twice but those two visits, he had a whole bunch of palys in, including pink elephants, african blues, some tubs blues. You just need to look real close as some are loose polyps.

i've been there about.......50 times...lol (well, at least since he opened up several years ago)

BTW.......they are moving several blocks down the road starting in mid-july to a bigger, better place (can you even imagine anything better??). they are calling in an army to move the official deltec tank....lol

was it in a tank with other items for sale? or in their show tank?

only times i've seen things in their sale tanks that weren't for sale, is if someone already paid for them and had them hold it.
 
I hope those things have colored up and opened up. If they stay like that PM me and I'll make it up to you, I can't gat a bad rep when I've only been here a month!
