Snipers Bubblegum Mille

bubbaque · Nov 23, 2018

Adam said he use to give out 2" frags. Why is it so hard to find pics of the Snipers Bubblegum? When you search for pics all that comes up with the standard bubblegum milli. You would think more people have it.

Everyone I've talked to has lost it all of a sudden. Guess it can be quite dramatic ; )

I got a frag from Matt at Boom Corals a while back. I have it under halides, and it is gorgeous. It didn't grow much so I decided to frag it to see if I can improve the growth. Did it a couple of weeks ago, and nothing has changed much except that the new frag has encrusted.

It truly is a pretty coral. Just wish it would grow more.

Just ordered a large frag from Quinn at boom corals. It will either be under t5 (frag tank) or halide in my display. Haven’t decided where to put it yet

I vote halide as that's what it's under now.

Nice. My par is only 300ish under the halide (400w radium in Cozumel reflector over 36x36x27 cube). Hopefully that’s enough!

It’s currently under a 400w radium with Hamilton reflector.

Should be pretty close then!

Excited to get mine tomorrow from Boom, this will be my third time with this frag.

My original one I got about 6-7 years ago from Adam at BC.

Had one from BoomCorals about 8 months ago but lost it on a tank crash this summer [emoji3525]

Old thread but what does it take for this coral to grow? Mine doesn't do much. Color is amazing but little growth. Should it have really high light? I have it under Radiums.

I have mine under radion gen 3 pros like midway and it is one of the fastest growers I have so far, color is great also.

What do u keep your ALK at? I am just wondering if there is a pattern to this Millie.

blkhawk10 · Mar 24, 2019

I’ll get a pic tomorrow when I get off work...I keep my all between 8-9.

I have a hard time capturing all the color with my old canon. May be a good reason to upgrade! I took a video with my iphone and snapped a picture with my SLR.

I love this coral. Nice pics. I hope mine grows.

What are the lighting and parameters do you keep yours under?

It's definitely in my top 5. I have a couple colonies under halides and that seems to grow and color it best. I have another large colony under a radion pro, but it rarely shows it's blue tips there. That also could be because it gets picked on heavily from some angels in that tank.
