I dont think he does anymore and i shot my colony once years ago but was holding out for some pink in the tips so i never used it. Colony been pretty ravished since then. I've had a couple requests for colony shot off this one though so ill see if i can dig up that old pic.
Ultimately it's really similar to the spainbow in color and structure. Very likely the same species, but I always though there was some pink in the tips. Was just never able to pull them out myself.

@Battlecorals -- Well here's mine, it came indirectly to me from you! (@mdbannister)
As you can see, it's a wee baby snip off a frag. But it's doin' it's thing and encrusting / coloring up a bit.
Down here is a picture from Coral Revolution, which looks very different -- Any thoughts on this one adam?

Actually if you want my honest opinion I don't think it's that different at all, other than in size. Definitely the same coral assuming Leos frag came from Ron as well. PE is clearly full throttle on Leos and colors a little paler, but ultimately coloration and structure even, compared to that little guy of yours is really close. Comparison will be much easier to make once yours gets a little bigger for sure and the good news is that this guy is fast grower. Looks like he's getting hint of that pink I've been looking for as well lol.
My colony wasn't too far off in size and was identical to his in structure.
Heres that old pic i mentioned.

Yes mine is developing the pink tips actually, but it's body is not green it's blue -- That could just be the transitional color gradient though, because afterall, this frag is barely larger than the tip of a branch from the colony.
Blue body sounds pretty sweet man would love to circle back and see what that looks like in another year

Me too!
As my BC mini-fraglets turn into mini corals/colonies I'll probably post them here. Grown corals are, IMHO, one of the best resources for "yeah, I'll buy that".

Interesting...I think I might have gotten one of those in my pack a few months back...wonder where it ended up. I am pretty sure I have a Spainbow and a Kaleidescope and possibly another (?) that's awfully similar to those two that I honestly don't know what's what at this point.
I'll have to try to locate them and see if I can find/tell a difference.

My IC Kaleidoscope has finally gotten to a size where I may be able to get a decent picture. In the mean time, I saw a FB auction tonight that listed the following as the same coral: Avengers/Joe Knows Reef Rainbow 2.0/Kaleidoscope. Thoughts?
Update! The purple tips aren't as clearly visible in the picture as they are in person. But it's slowly developed as you said it should!
Nice. Looking good, as well are the surrounding frags! it will start to grow a lot faster as it gets bigger too. this one is almost unstoppable lol

That little guys been through a lot. Knocked off the rack into a hammer by a snail, light change to LED, and now sitting on the frag rack again for a rescape. He's just starting to pickup now that I stopped moving him around.
