LF: The most EPIC showpiece tabling SPS
After my last rebuild by green birdsnest went kapoot again (like it does after every rebuild)... except this time I've decided only to keep a small frag of it and not really bother to grow it back.
So this has left a nice hole in one of my ledge rocks that is prime location and needs to be filled. My girlfriend must have noticed the mad look in my eyes when I realized all this 'cuz all she said was "uh-oh, I guess this means you're going shopping?". HECK YEAH IT DOES, LADY! So, I am looking for the most gorgeous, epic, so-hot-that-Jesus-himself-couldn't-microwave-a-burrito-that-hot centerpiece SPS frag to fill the spot on the edge of this ledge. I am thinking either a tabling SPS or something that will form a nice 'bush' from out the side of the rock. I am looking for crazy colours (think disco) and love things that fluoresce under my LED moonlights. So, anyone got any suggestions or frags that could fit the bill?

Solely for the wicked write up, I wish I did for you.

Red planet all the way, the thing grows like a beast and is one of the brightest SPS in my tank!

I think a good quality Bonsai makes a great centerpiece. Grows decently fast too.
I think Red Planet is kinda over-rated, but maybe because I already have a red Acro. I also have a blue with green Candlelight Acro and a Strawberry Shortcake which I think take the cake over any Red Planet I've seen. Last edited by Myka; 07-31-2011 at 01:26 PM.

Center piece
They are right Red Planet and the various Bonsai are nice I have both but for me the seemingly rarity of a Red coulored acro wins out for me!
Although the piece of Gator Aid Millie I picked up a little while ago may take over top spot. Bright orange with green polyps! I wll have to wait and see if it tables as it grows! Keith

I was gonna say strawberry shortcake too but it would take forever to fill up that hole...... They really do grow slow

Red Planet, that is the best you guys could come up with?
I have frags of Red Planet and Neon Green Pectinia in my tank, and I would pick the Neon Green Pectinia every day of the week.
I do not get much, if any, florecents from the Red Planet, yet the Pectinia, glows and glows. Nope I think if most people that like nice bright things under the moon. Would pick the Neon Green Pectinia, 100 times out of 100, over the Red Planet.

can't wait till it grows out. Would make a nice centerpiece but getting a nice size piece might be tough
