Can't help it but that sounds so silly and incredibly ridiculous. Glad it was facilitated otherwise well just otherwise. And I'm glad someone is the official photographer and pedigree provider.
Back to lps1212's question, the couple of frags that have surfaced do look pretty. How they will look as colonies, no one seems to know yet. Whether or not it turns into a beauty like the original picture of the mother colony , this acro will likely always have a very special lore associated with it. Ever slightly reminiscent of the $500 efflo except a little inflation built in and a tremendous amount of added drama.
I do want a frag of this coral but may not get it for a while. I have a purple monster not because it's the prettiest coral in the tank, but rather because it has a lot of history associated with it. The purple monster is exciting to have because it holds a special place in acro collecting history
I apologize if my post is aggressive sounding, but Ben, really?
