Hello,
I have a colony of a torquoise green staghorn, and its really pretty with the light blue tips it gets.

I want another staghorn, and I was wondering if you guys could persuade me on which one to get? (With pictures? :D)

Steve Ellias is a sweet on but it is similar to the one you are describing. Ultimate blue stag is another good one.

I just bought an ORA blue voodoo stag....it's kind of different looking with delicate branches and many different shades of color (none blue yet).

Miami orchid is nice in some tanks it can have a yellow base with purple growth tips but has a tendency to look very different in each tank (ORA also).

Ora blue tort stag is kind of nice and grows fast. I think it is different than the Ora blue tortosa though. It is dark blue-green with dark blue tips. Sometimes totally dark blue.

Green slimers are always a sure bet for a splash of bright color and fast growth.

Formosas are nice but kind of hard to find I think.

If I were going to get another stag though I think I would get a red one.

I were you I would just get as many acropora as could I afford.

Stags are nice because they grow quickly. It is nice to have others with various growth forms, though. This adds a good deal of diversity and texture.
