Update 04/23/19. Not sure it has grown or not... maybe a little.

 

[HairyGary]

What lights, par, flow and parameters you have it at? Just curious. Thanks!

 

[Reefer40b]

Not sure on par, but its enough to keep a PC rainbow pure red. Decent flow, 0w50 sine wave and 2 ow40s elise in a 180, its a mixed tank so can't have too much flow. ALk steady @7.7. usually don't test CA or mag very often so not too sure on those at the moment. usually 410 and 1300

That's my top wanted coral. I missed out on a Frag at the last swap because I wanted to hold out on one vendors 90 price and get it for closer to 75. It sold by the time I came back around.

And the other guy that had one wanted 125 for a frag, which is almost full blown retail, so I passed on that one.

Hopefully I'll come away with a frag at the swap this weekend.

Wow you got a fat frag nice score! Wd is definitely a must have its a beautiful acro and the price has gone down like crazy in the past couple of years. I have 6 spread out in my 180 super easy to grow

 

[Leadfooted]

Maybe frag a small nub that has a few polyps and re-locate the new frag lower in the display. From what I've heard, the WD gets more colors in lower PAR, when it receives higher PAR they tend to have more greens. It's a very hardy acro so don't be phased the slightest bit when fragging a little nub. You'll be surprised to see the nub will grow faster too.

 

[DesertReefT4r]

I got mine a few weeks ago, $50 for 1" frag.

 

[Reeferguy365]

I have actually experimented with placement of this acro and it doesn't seem to matter to much for color I like them up high but I'm getting almost the same color with one that's 8" lower more green on the lower one but that's just because it's a baby. The pink also comes out a lot more when the white lights are on in my tank check it out the first pics with just blue and the second is with whites on

Any updates on yours?

 

[Reefer40b]

Will get a pic maybe in a week or 2... I clipped the tip after it lost a little tissue on 1 branch. Also had random issues throughout the tank that I couldn't explain until I check my mixing barrel.... my pump rusted out bad surprised the impeller was still able to move... poisoning my tank. I caught it fast enough that the only coral I did loose was a really large volleyball sized stylophora surprisingly! the walt has since healed over the cut but has not grown much..
Here is a pic of the drum, my mixing pump was just covered orange and the whole inside of the barrel orange with rust... this pic is even after a rinse and scrub. Nice and clean now!!
