I think Darryl is right



This for sure is the Pink Floyd and the polyps actually look PINK. (much lighter yellow as well)...tough to say though...it could be the same coral just a white balance issue (the contrast seems really dark on it).

Ya, to me that looks like the same coral just lighter either from white balance or higher light. Either way, it's the same species from what I can tell.

I've actually been sitting all weekend comparing these reef raft pics with some of the pics of the frags that are available throught he reef raft group order. Some of them look SO close to the ReefRaftUSA corals, but the pictures we were sent suck a bit so it's a bit tough to tell.

I'll put it this way...all the pics (even rrusa) are taken by Jay in canada. If they were the same...he would have gave you the same pic and told you the name. At least that only makes sense to me.

it is not, they have gotten in about 4 of these colonies the last 4-5 months

Dave, the LED are ok, in that they retained most of my coral's colors. Some went downhill...my efflo which was purple on green is now grey on grey. My pink and blue milli is now my nice blue milli. A couple others lost a bit of bang, although I just nuked my tank with pesticides, so not a good week to be judging colors -lol
Overall, if you have Radiums and no GOOD (cost, evaporation, etc) reason to switch them out, I'd stick with them.

agreed.....my final decision on the Illumina 260 I am running will be in by xmas I suspect...I recently added 3 UV modules, and am going to get either 2 more UV or 2 blue...........I have some nice SPS now and have my alk under control with a doser.....time will tell

My final decision was in in 3 weeks. I had to go LED for evaporation reasons, so gotta live with it, but I miss my Radiums The vertex may offer better quality light, so hopefully you get different results.
I've got my alk a bit low too, so I'm trying to bump that a bit, but that still won't bring back the lost colors, just a bit of the pop.
