LF: Acropora Desalwii frag

[ScubaSteve]

Hey everbody! I'm looking for a frag of A. desalwii. I don't know what fancy name other reefers have dubbed it so it's a little hard to track it down. To make things easier, here is a picture of A. desalwii I found on Google.

If any one has a frag of this beauty, please give me a shout!!!

Most A. desalwii do not have green polyps like this, most of them are brown so finding one won't mean that you will end up with one looking like this.

I miss yours too That's a pretty snazzy looking colony there. See why I want some?

PS. Atomikk, you guys have any cool zoas/palys in that aren't on the site?

We do. We are working of some cool pictures. We will have Nukes, PDs, etc... and this amazing new soft coral only offered by us.

Wanna hook a brotha up with something cool? Let me know when you've got some pics!

Also, any suggestions where to track down A. desalwii?

[ScubaSteve]

Are you sure on that? The only ones I have ever seen in tanks or in pictures have green polyps, albeit maybe not as green as in the picture I have there; in fact, if I recall correctly, that is one of the traits of A. desalwii. A. plana, which looks incredible similar and grows in the same region as A. desalwii, has the purple/brown polyps...

Well there is what is possible in nature, and what is possible with heavy dosing of elements. Both Plana and Desalwii can have green polyps. I believe the main factor in determining which is which is the growth pattern.
