Hey Eugene! No problem, but lets not get ahead of our selves!
By all acounts this thing will grow slower than my branching Cyphastrea!
It is still on my frag rack slowly turning purple. It does have the coolest white polyps though!

I have had the frag for a week now and it is colouring up. I have no pictures, well, because my Photo skills are surpassed in crapiness only by my computer skills! I can't figure out this photo bucket thing to save my life.
Sorry, i'll try again in the next couple of days.

Found this on the net which is what it should look like after it colours up:

Yup has the same growth pattern and coralite structure but not the same colour by a long shot yet! The frag is maybe 1/3rd. the size in the photo.
Fingers crossed!

Sean the corals I picked up from you have coloured up nicely!
I think your problem may be over skimming. That BK. skimmer is a beast.

Yeah Keith I am leaning more and more that way aswell. I am really wanting to get some corals in that tank again here really soon. Jen is back from maternity leave now, so now there's a little more play money for me. :mrgreen: I just bought a wavebox and have done a few improvements, so I think I am pretty close here.

I will have to come see your tank here soon and check everything out.
