Show Me Your Best Colors!!!

jackson6745 · 10/11/2006, 03:17 PM

I would love to see pics of your most colorful corals. Could be a whole colony or just a small frag. I want to see some really nice colors.
If you are having a hard time getting color on your SPS you should notice the common charasteristics of the more colorful tanks. I will post some pics later also. Thanks

dreaminmel · 10/11/2006, 11:00 PM

Jackson, Any chance that frag came from Reefermadness? Looks a lot like my yellow w/ blue polyp nasuta... either way, that's a sweet coral. =)
