WOW! That is stunning. Nice job man. I searched for over a year before I finally got a real oregon tort and I must say it was absolutely worth every second of the wait! Ive had it for about 6 months now and its grown about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch. Even though it grows painfully slow the color makes up for it. IMO there is not another coral on earth of any shade that can rival it. Ill get a pic up tomorrow! |

Awesome pics everyone. That chalice is really cool I love the growth structure! Ive always been an acro guy but recently picked up my first chalica about a month ago. Its almost grown to cover the plug completely. If you dont mind I think im going to steal your idea of stacking plugs!!
To get back on topic I managed to get a few shots of my oregon tort tonight. Im going to have to get out the digital camera because this iphone pic is pathetic!! I will still share none the less. To the OP, there are quite a bit of blue acros out there but if your looking to replace your OT you should go for another OT!! ImageUploadedByTapatalk1390458864.399861.jpg |

Thanks Matt. Pics are taken with an iPhone5 through a look down box. Photos were cropped and edited for sharpness. No color edit. Lighting is a 400w radium + t5's. The first one is something that I have not seen in the hobby….yet. It was an australian piece that looked like a regular blue tennis. This just colored up with red polyps recently. If anyone has the first one please LMK. I would love to compare notes

Are you using the native photo app or another one? That first coral is really fantastic.
