Hassle me if I don't add some to this thread next week!

If you are a red loving coral fanatic, to me, the BC Cricket Spine may perhaps be the richest, deep red colored coral I have seen. It's definitely a "must have" smoothie, top 5, not 10

100% agree on Cricket Spine, Skinny Love, and the original BC Joker.

I have never seen anyone grow out a big colony of Angelica and have been frustrated so many times by it that it no longer makes my list.

Getting a piece of BC Set to Stun soon! Looking forward to it so much. Here is some random smooth skin I just added to the tank. I don’t know what it is.

Nice!! I need to add that one to my list.

Obviously Jawdropper too, but it is expensive.

And Reefgen Blueberry Fantasy (it is a really thick smoothie comparable to Purple Monster).

 

[coral reeftank]

Im biased, but my favorite smoothie has to be my CRT Rainbow Explosion, overall my years of reefing I have not seen anything better under blues and daylights

Wowzers! That blueberry fantasy is dope, gonna have to snag some stuff from you Therman down the road.

Here is my Sublime Granulosa. I haven't posted a photo publicly in fear of a major demand for frags and I haven't come to terms with cutting many frags of it. It is definitely in top three corals of all time for me. Under the right lighting and nutrients it gets stunning yellow base color with eye popping indigo blue to purple tips and the smoothest branches around, looking almost like an anemone. For me it is one of those mythical corals that I've only seen occasionally in photos from Europe or in books. Can't entirely believe I have a colony of it

1) purple monster
2) peng blue monster
3) DFS pink panther
4) TUSI rainbow
5) LRO buzz light year
6) northern light
7) TGC Bugatti
8) JF fantasy island
9) POTO flame thrower
10) cricket spine
excluding Hungs rainbow and JD. Those are in a league of its own

How do you bring out the white in yours?

How do you bring out the white in yours?

This is in my main system, that has been running for 16+ years and has a weird dynamic with undetectable nitrates. Certain corals, particularly smoothies, seem to thrive in it and have faster growth with long smooth branches. This colony is at 500+ PAR. I think they must be getting all of their nitrogen as ammonia.

In my backup system where I dose nitrates into the 10-20ppm range, it has a darker base coloration.

 

[therman]

It almost makes me wonder if ammonia dosing could be a future trend in coral propagation.
