Here's some to start off..

What do you mean photoshop? It's not really that uncommon for people to collect a lot of one coral. Even though scoly's aren't cheap it's not unreasonable.

ArtemisGoldfish

09/25/2010, 05:14 PM

Yeah, Its not Photoshopped... you can tell by the shadows.

Actually that's exactly what's incorrect about it. This, the lighting and texture gradients, blow it up under Photoshop, you'll see what I mean.

Also, if it's not fake, more pictures of the same via varying angles.

I think you're just jealous somebody has a truck load of scoly's and you don't. Period. Who else agrees?

People collect and keep corals, and if you have a problem with somebody having a lot of very nice corals, you should take that up with them. :beer:

Seriously. It's nothing to go argue about. If it's fake then they must really want attention. If it's true then kickass tank.
Let's just leave it at that.

Let's bump this up... I keep almost buying a nice Scoly but haven't actually been able to pull the trigger yet. What about those nice Scolys that have the frilly edges? Scolymia vitiensis I think? I haven't seen many pictures of those. Had an opportunity last week to get a red and blue one that was about 8" in diameter from Australia... Almost did it.

I could get two awesome ones right now, but a certain fish would love them as much as me. Unfortunately, in a different way. An expensive dinner.
Too bad, because both are perfect sizes for my 36gallon Bowfront.
