Has anyone got any cool before and after pics of corals/frags?

How about corals from Ocean Aquatics?

Good think you put so much research into lights, heck for anyone else they'd probably turn green or purple... :lol:

Hey Jack,
Here's one I picked up from you guys close to Nov 19th. At least thats when I took the pic. Not the best pics, damn water always gets in the way.

Here it is as of today. It's only really laid a good base. So it should anytime now start some new axial's and branch out. Once it does that I think it'll be a nice piece. I believe a few other guys got a frag of this piece too. As I recall afew pics posted of them in their new homes.

Thanks Jamie.

Just want to see some pics. Seems like we're sending out coral here and there and I want to see what people have. :mrgreen:

I was talking with Darren and he says his pieces are colouring up nicley.

I don't want this sounding like advertising either.

Jamie, is that the "teal" acro they got in a while ago? I got a chunk and it was not much when I got it but it went the color you show in the pic then it changed to a medium blue.. pritty nice actualy.

I would put a pic up but it came unglued and I lost it for a few days :rolleyes: so now it is reglued and starting to get the color back again.

Ok here's one I got from Marc back in 2001 when he had a farming system with his brother. The date could be wrong on the pic though. Marc would have to confirm when he had that operation running. The coral I'm refering to is the one right up front in the picture.

Oh and thanks Jack. Your request caused me to dig up some old pics of my tank and all I can say is wow times have changed.

Steve, yeah the two pieces may be from the same mother colony. I'm not sure though.

Bud.

Glad you like it. I have the picture of the same coral that you're talking about. It coloured up in Darren's (DJ88) tank recently.

Steve.

What would you call the colour of that milli? What does it look like in person. It's pretty neat.
