Hello

So I am big into tabling acroporas especially efflos and hyacinthus.

Well yesterday on Divers Den, I got an 8" Extra large Australian green and pink tabling Acropora coral with some lavender tips.

It was a reduced item that was $380 but reduced to $200.

Good deal?

The shape looks great!

What was the condition of this bad boy when it arrived?

I purchased it yesterday. It ships Monday. I will get it Tuesday.

It will go into my bommie tank after acclimation and QT

Yeah I thought it was an awesome score for me. This is such a big colony and the shape is great. This is just a piece that I had been looking for for quite a while.

Here's a better pic.

I just wanted to post some pics of this huge Acropora Hycinthus now that it is in my QT.
I set this acro on a 3" PVC coupling just to put it into perspective.
It's brown looking but really has a purplish color and whitish blue growth branches. So it's not the prettiest acro available but it definitely is natural looking.

Me too. From thee looks of your profile pic it looks like you like tabling acros as well.

Is that a Acropora subulata?

Nice score. Make sure to give it a lot of flow.

Thanks. Oh yeah. It's in a nice high flow area. I am getting FPE from this guy. It's such a nice table.

That is a nice score. The way you described the colour...reminds me of the PC Superman Table Acro. Would be smashing if it turned those colours.
