Show Me Your Pocilloporas!

[windyridge]

I love these corals and especially love the contrast between the polyps and the body (correct name?) on this particular one. I don't take great pics but I am looking forward to seeing yours! Mine are just small frags and the bottom frag is an accidental baby.

Maybe it's just me, but it looks more like a seriatopora.

[sporto0]

I must admit I agree with Richard Reefer here, that looks like a birdsnest. I'll try & post a pic of my Pocillopora after the Pens game.

[rovster]

Yeah, that's not Pocillopora. Its nice regardless ;)

[windyridge]

You guys are right, my bad. Show me your seriatoporas instead!

[sporto0]

LOL, Here is my Pocillopora, I'll have to take another pic of my Birdsnest in a few.

[jubjub47]

I actually have a pic on my phone of my birdsnest.

[windyridge]

Nice pics!!! Anyone have the same as mine only bigger?

Yes it seems like my little frags are growing quickly. Love the photos!

[der_wille_zur_macht]

Did you get that from someone local? It's on my must-haves list but I haven't seen much around this area.

[windyridge]

Nate do you mean me? I can swap you that accidental frag for some of those red zoas you mentioned if you like. In fact I had that frag at the back of my head for you for that. It grows fast too. I got it at the Binghamton frag swap in exchange for one of a different color. I had my eye on that SPS ever since I first saw one many months ago at ABC. And fortunately my lemon goby does not like it like it liked the other one. It must not like the color!

[jc-reef]

and a tighter macro of same colony. This one grows with tight clustered branches which you don't see often.

I'm not for sure what it is. It did come on a ORA plug, but it may have been a recycled plug.

Great pictures everyone! Makes my viewing tonight a real treat.

[windyridge]

That Bird of Paradise is stunning. Love the color contrast!

[csmfish]

ALLMOST:

What is that one in the bottom pic, that is at the back of the tank/picture itself to the right?


Also to all, is there any of the pocs that branch out like that or are they all close clustered branchers?

Yup! I'll take you up on that trade offer.

That Bird of Paradise is stunning. Love the color contrast!

I have that, too. It's just a frag but there are several branches so I could probably get one off for you if you want. It's a really unique color. Almost a cross between olive and lime green.

[rpjaws74]

wow nice coral

[BlueFyre]

Mine's just a frag but it seems happy

[windyridge]

Nate you have deal on both!

Lovely pink!

So how many colors do these seriatophoras come in?

That's what mine started out looking like in 2010.
