Here is a pic of the mother colony under 250 watt MH 14K Phoenix w/T-5 Superblues. I've found that this coral actually grows better under PC lighting, but loses the blue background until it gets higher lighting.

Here is a shot of two frags:

One frag close-up:

Always great to see your shots Bob

Here is an old shot of mine

What a neat looking coral, I've never seen picks before.

Looking good Mark! What kind of lighting do you have it under? It seems to have more red than mine under my lighting.

Mine gets more red when it is partially shaded. I use 250watt radiums and vho's. I've moved it around a few times to experiment with lighting and it will get lighter and darker. Its definitely a special piece and I am glad that Alicia and I were able to get one of the first frags over 2.5 years ago. Thanks again.

For those who have the orange immolation, what's the growth rate like?

slow-moderate

I've had mine for a couple months, no new eyes but there has been decent skin growth

Yep, on the slow side. Mine only had one eye for over year, but there was growth. I cut two frags and then the eyes became more apparent.

 

[akabryanhall]

What do eyes go for?

 

[mpoletti]

What do eyes go for?

$300-$350 a frag is pretty standard these days.
