I was given this colony from a friend because it just wasn't doing well in his tank. It was stark white when I got it, even under his 400w 20k bulbs with lots of flow around in his otherwise thriving SPS tank. He kept telling me to frag it, but I knew it would pull through, I had faith! (not really, I was just too lazy to frag it and deal with little frags everywhere...)

And here it is today, 3 months later. It doesn't have much color, which I have no idea why, maybe my lights aren't bright enough to it's tastes, or something, because a lot of other corals have more color in my tank, but regardless it grows like a weed now and is nice and full.

Its the Acro on the bottom left side, the big brown colony (it has blue and green close to the coral, but looks brown from far away)

Just goes to show how well corals can respond to a change of scenes...
