Success with a Pearlberry?

[xtreme]

Here is an old top down shot of it. It is much larger than this now.

Gorgeous coral! Same colors as a Pearlberry, but different structure.

Bought one from xtreme and its a very nice piece. When I compared it to a friends ORA Pearlberry they are 2 different corals. They have differet growth patterns, thicker/thinner branches, different structure, and doesnt have the oval tip like the ORA Pearlberry does.

Its a nice coral but I dont think its an ORA Pearlberry.

Very nice Sean, that grew gorgeously for you. I had only ever fragged that colony twice and I am glad you got one of them. Pearlberry-ish is right, I have since started to wonder as well when I came across another pearlberry that had the exact same coloration but different growth (which I picked up of course). The second one I have now has more rounded tips, and much slower growing (and far more finicky). My first one was bigger than a basketball before I hacked it apart.....now its almost a volleyball again, bullet proof coral.

I would like to check out your tank in person one day Sean, you look like you have had some explosive growth and colors.

I can't seem to find old pics of the first coral by itself when I took them top down. It is the coral dead center in this picture that was taken a few years ago. I will see if i can get a good pic of the second frag as well.
