Yellow Leathers--Fiji vs. Tonga Vs. Aussie

[jamie1210]

Is the Fiji yellow leather the brightest, or are they all about the same shade of yellow? I haven't seen a Fiji yellow leather for sale in awhile, but I do see Tonga and Aussie from time to time. Are they colors not as bright? How would you rank them?

Are you in the market for a yellow leather?

When they still showed up at the lfs many years ago. PE was a nice coral

Fiji is definitely the brightest and most yellow out of the three Sacrcophyton. I have one that was sold as a Tonga and one that sold as Yellow elegance. Both tiny frags, slow grower, and both came missing about half of the zooxanthellae or coloration not sure if it was due to fragging. The Tonga is almost fully color back up and had a bit of growth. I have it as high as possible in the tank and almost in front of the MP10 flow.

Would like to get a frag of a Fiji once I move, upgrade and fix my low nutrients issues.

I had a Fiji back in the early 2000s. Wish I could get another. This was under metal halide and VHO

They routinely have them available. I was happy with the ones I bought. Definitely a slow grower and loves lots of light and flow

Tongan is just as bright as the Fiji I'd say. Keep in mind they only keep their vibrant yellow under very bright white light, preferentially from MH or T5. They are truly light loving corals. They don't look that good under the LEDs of today. Speaking from personal experience.
