Thanks Reefan. Yes there is a 'shades of fall' in the display but in regards to the pink lemonade, I'm told what I have is very similar to it but I have no true pedigree info, other than it is from Australia, so it has been aptly called CM - 'no name' acro.
The purple table I believe you must be referring to is A.tutuilensis, although it is more of a mauve color and it is one of my faves. That colony is about 10 inches across. :biggrin:
Thanks, I am pretty fond of that 'green dragon' as well - a very interesting acro.
Thanks for looking and for your comments.

This coral is becoming one of my faves. Vibrant green and starting to get subtle pink & blue hues around the growth end. :mrgreen: Unfortunately I can't seem to capture it on camera very well though.

Looking good, Greg! Really like the Granulosa!

What lighting are you using now Greg?

I still use a mix of MH & T5 for the most part although I have one corner of the tank that I replaced a defunct MH pendant with a Radium LED.

A few LPS shots.

Fantastic photo of a fantastic coral.
Thanks for sharing Greg.

I'm overdosing on your color and variety Greg. Can't wait for this to grow out and for some more mature FTS. Well done sir.

Wow incredible corals!

Wow greg that tabk is coming along great.

How many more tools do I need to buy before corals start becoming kick backs?

I need to catch my foxface:twised: -
it has taken a liking to nipping corals and seems to especially like the expensive ones like this yellow & orange lobo.

Thanks Wayne - if the truth be told the picture does it no justice at all. It is really bright.:smokin:
I actually have two of them and I am hoping the newest one I got last week will get as bright as this one.
