Just thought I would share a few pics of my sps frags that Jack and Lee have been coral sitting for me for quite some time now (giant algae bloom happened and I decided it would be best to send them off until everything calmed down). So much time that I almost didn't recognize them when Lee brought them down for me today. A huge thanks to both Jack and Lee for graciously giving them a home until my tank recovered!!

If I have any of the names wrong or you have any more specific info on the name, feel free to share. I'm still new to this sps thing :)
Thanks again Jack and Lee! You guys rock!!

Nice pieces, Christy!
My guess on that purple cap is that there was some sediment buildup due to insufficient circulation. The accumulating detritus would have caused that patch of necrosis. Keep circulation high and varied on the coral, and it will be fine.
