Not to worry Doug, I'll be in calgary next week and would do all of the shipping for you, The other guys in town Might get some scraps... Maybe...:lol:

that thing's changed hasn't it? Appears purple/green vs the tan/light blue I think it used to be (and mine still is). It's really growing upwards tho. Mine is still focused on encrusting...

ya it has gone through a bit of an evolution....I can remember thinking for the first few monthes I had it, "what the F did I buy this frugly brown blob for?".....glad I didnt ditch it.....it's not the most flamboyant piece in the tank but it is neat in its own way.....

Stunning there man!

I just got a small colony of RedPlanet yesterday....and was wondering how far below your lights you have yours to get the coloring (I have very similar lighting)
What kind of flow do you have it in?

Thanx, Chris

One of those unknown blue acros you sold me initially turned brownish and now the tips are turning bright green. You just never know what your coral is going to do in a different tank and over time.

thanks man.... the growth sequences are both fun and a PITA to do (gotta go search through hundreds of pics to find what I need)....ya the first thing I do when I get a new coral is take pics of it....even if its not looking so hot....this way I can A) show off a new coral and 2) track how it has done in my system
