So, I was looking for a killer bta so pair of s'mores could host in something nice. Tried for months to secure a lemon drop bta but always came up short. I finally found a sweet nem by Sexy Corals in the states. They named it their Sexy Corals Signature Nem. When I got it, it was only about 2" fully expanded. I fed it a variety of foods to keep its appetite up and now its about 5-6" when fully open. It varies in color from the green and white speckled base, to red, then orange, then tops it off with yellow tips. A true rainbow bta and cost me a small fortune, lol.

This is a pic of it while its open.

Its hard to capture its true color with my phone but you get the idea, it absolutely glows when the whites go out.

I also have a nice dendro colony that is getting bigger by the day. It eats when I feed the tank and I also target feed it every night just for fun. Has over 25+ heads and counting.

This is it after a nice meal.

And just for good measure, here's a pic of some of the zoas in my garden.

With all the money you spend on corals, I''m surprised you haven't bought a camera :razz:

If they came out with a coralline encrusted model it'd be bought already I bet!

Hmm, you have a valid point, I'll just give Rich a call and ask him to snap some pics since everyone else does, lol.

Everyone's always asking to frag it but I don't want to risk it yet. Maybe if it gets up to 30+ heads and closer to my Sps, I'll cut it.

Just picked up this neon pink tipped elegance. The pink tips are uber bright, brighter than i have ever seen. I stared at it for a while, bought my palys and made it to the door before turning around and going back for it. I sold my last elegance as it got too big for the tank and have missed it ever since. Not gonna target feed this one to have it grow slowly.
