Show off your Rarest/Most Colorful SPS corals - Page 27

Here are some of Mine - Blue dragon, Deepwater, and Birdsnest-
Species are Acropora Walinidii, Acropora multiacuta(best guess), and Seriatpora stellata respecively.

The blue dragon is especially hard to photograph, but in person its alternately blue, purple, greenish, and white in portions as you change angles.

Damn it my tank sucks!

The pink one started off as a bland brown millepora, under T5s it has turned a fluorescent pink with pale teal polyps...

Nothing i have is rare but i have a few that i really like!! Blue tenius

...no clue what this is, been told possibly horrida but too small for a definitive id but purple with green polyps

... This one came from a frag swap, nobody seems to be able to id it either, including the gentelman who sold it too me, the picture represents the color of the skeleton perfectly but the polyps are actually a dark green color

lastly, i know this is an sps thread but i saw a few others stray a bit so i feel compelled to do so only because these zoas are my absolute favorite in my tank among eight other colonies of zoas
