Vivids Four Loko

Nice coral, but looking like another WD variant imho.. Not aiming this at anyone, btw.
 
It’s a Acropora Tenius variant. Keep in mind you can’t have a variant of a Walt Disney. It is a totally absurd, arbitrary and fictitious name.
 
Keeping in mind that I see WD's looking 100% different from tank to tank. This does not look far off from some of those.. What would you call all the different OP's? Variants or another tenuis? because they could be labeled as both imo..
 
Alright so here she is. Not as bright as the photos but definitely pretty cool. Polyps are legit redish orange. Nice piece!

Do you have an update of your frag? would love to see how it looks now
 
I have come to the point where I don’t believe any pictures of sps from vendors websites. Everything is over saturated.
I am with you on that. Also if the price is over 100 bucks for a frag I pass no matter what.
 
Here is what they said it looks like in "daylight". Still might be a little too red if you look at what I assume is a grafted red monti all the way to the right of the pic. I think it still looks like a beautiful coral!

You guys think this pic is messed with??? Looks completely fine to me. It does look like a cc cherry bomb or similar. There is no way it will ever look like the sellers photo though, that is just way to much ...

You ever see a monti cap or goniapora THAT red? I think the coral looks close to that but is still tweaked to look better than it is.

Red gonis are often the go to for red in a reef tank, I have seen some amazingly vibrant ones as well as caps. Sure the pic is a little off but nothing I would complain about compared to a lot of the led and filter pics I see. I would love to see an update on the frag posted in the beginning. I figured the high priced fad of tenuis frags would be dying down by now, especially since there are starting to be a lot of different named frags that look the same, and there are not really any new colors coming in that we haven't seen for this coral.
 
I have seen it in person under both white and blue and from side and top down. Nice coral for sure but not quite as mind blowing as the photos IMO. The one vivid signature coral that exceeded my expectations and was truly amazing under white and blue was the confetti in my opinion.

I agree, the Confetti is sweet and very bright in person. My piece is just a small frag but it's worth it imo. I wouldn't gamble on any of their tenuis without seeing them in person. There are too many look a likes to be had at 1/3 to 1/4 the price for sale everyday from other vendors and private reefers.

Agreed. And so far they're pretty finicky as well. I got the Adventador, Blue Berry Blast and God Father as well. The BBB and Confetti are encrusting well but the God Father and Adventador aren't doing much, particularly the Adventador which started to STN recently from the base. Its doing good again after cutting and reglueing but well see. I have quite a bit of SPS in my system now and the Adventador is the only one I've ever had any real problems with. But it's still early and they sure did look sweet under blues in the shop (not amazing under whites though).
 
I've seen these in person at Vivid. I felt they were represented pretty fairly. I left with a 4 loko when i made the drive for the confetti. Mine ismt much to look at after my battle with AEFW bit is starting to show some recovery. I'll update once it does but its still just a nub.

If i remember correctly his white or daylight setting is AB+ which is still pretty blue. When he went all blue that tank was on fire!

I won an auction with I believe was orange crush. Shipping takes its toll on sps color for sure and had I not seen it in person at the shop i would have thought the same as above.
 
No pic? So if its beside the confetti. Which looks better?
