I mounted the original frag onto a little magnet. So the magnet is still in there somewhere. After it had encrusted, I took the magnet off of the other side of the glass.

I hope my greg valida looks as nice one day. So far not even close.

Mine looked like junk for the first 2 years. I didn't see how it was purple. Just the tips were purple. But then it slowly got more and more purple.

These 2 photos are a 4 year update I guess. I got water in the tank 4 years ago on August 16. The rose anemone split a few weeks back. That's about all for the update. Enjoy and thanks for looking.

Looking great Dez!

Wow, that is looking awesome! No surprise there. Amazing clam!

Thanks. This is one of my favourite corals in the tank lately. I got it off Bignose. He gave it to me as a purple acro. It was 1" fresh cut and I mounted it on a golf tee. The golf tee is still in there surrounded by the coral.

ooh that's a sexy table. ever since i got that frag from you on a golf tee i wondered why others don't do the same. so easy to put it into the rock and it's virtually hidden. encrusts over quickly too.

Some cell phone pics I took tonight.
