Now I'm inspired to post a pic of my Tyree PM. My Eddie's from ianwane in SF, CA, looks nothing like the Eddie's posted here. The Eddie's posted here look more like a echinata to me. Very nice coral regardless, one I'd be proud to have in my tank!

that pm looks huge compared to most of the frags you see and you have alot of nice acros!
 
Here's mine; it is fairly purple. It is now taking on some of the green from the ATL intense purple efflo though.

Solomon Islands via Bob Mankin. I wish he was still around. I used to love those disks!
 
Mine looks a little blue. Seems to be comparitively slow grower, but not the slowest in my tank. I like the build of the branches.
 
Here the growth I have had in the past few months. It's grows as slow as any other half inch frag. I don't think it's any less hardy either. Just have an established tank.

Does anyone know where to get the real deal OG PM? I’ve been looking and haven’t been able to locate one.
 
I saw that Thirsty's Reef has "large" encrusted purple monster frags for sale. They don't label them as large, but large in comparison to others I've seen.
 
I don’t think that’s the OG. I’m looking for white polyps and there is no green in a true purple monster. Look at post#17 by reefbum if you want to see what it’s supposed to look like.

Here are some shots of mine. I actually have two colonies. The bigger one I grew from a decent sized frag. It took a while to color up in my tank. In fact, when I frag it the frags lose color and then slowly gain it back. It is a very sensitive coral.
