I got a frag from WT many year ago. almost lost it from moving lucky to save a small frag from that. been about two year and all it do is encrust. I also got a frag of the Angeline arco from a friend that got it from WT. from what i see is the TDF is more pinkish red and the Angeline from my friend are nice green base and super hot red polyps. the Angeline look more like a red planet but have red hot polyps.
+1 or you can't tell much from just encrustments or little tiny branches just shooting out of an encrustment. You need some form to tell anything.

LOL! There is no way to compare those 2 pics. They are both bad pics.

Yep! both are bad pictures, one is just way over PS. I see it at WT and it didn't look close to that. it more of a pinkish red. If you got it from roktsintst i believe it's real becuase he got it from where WT got it from.

Sold to me as TDF by a local reefer. Whatcha think? I have this in high light and it maintains the green. I've been hesitant about calling it a TDF cuz there's been so many different pics.
Mine came directly from WTs and looks exactly the same as yours w/ the green base. Grows so slow for me. Dan informed me I was not giving it enough light and strives for him under MHs
Sorry for crappy iPhone pic

Also, a helpful tidbit of info shared to me from Dan..TDF will not grow (minimally) vert or fully color until the base has reached an edge. IMO that is why earlier pic is heavily based w/ minimal vet. branching.
I hold on to mine in hopes it will bow to the LEDs and color up :violin:

he got his terria del fuego from the same place Dan got his? Dan imported it from Australia in
2010 Dan's the one who came up with the name terria del fuego it did not exist before then and wouldn't exist if it wasn't for him

Think about it, they name it but don't think they are the only one that was getting it. wholesale is all about money.

i thought Occulus imported the tdf as a wholesaler and sold it as OA Fire Garden.thats one of their former salespersons told me.WT bought it and named it TDF.makes sense as the WT stock pic is on one of OAs signature square plugs with offset post[i know thats not exclusive lol]
