    Anytime you want to come down and raid my tank just let me know roman.

    But as far as the SSC is concerned it hasn't been fraged yet.

    Gorgeous piece of coral! Nice growth to it also. When, if at all will you cut some frags?

    Good growth man. But looks like you have lost the intense pink tips in the last pic.

    They are a bit more pink then in the photo, but the PAR is much higher in that spot then it was under reefbreeder LEDs after switching to hydras. My red planet was pretty red and green but shifted to all red with higher PAR. I suspect as the coral grows out the effective light amount over the surface area will decrease and pink tips will increase. We shall see!

    I'll get one cut for you sometime real soon roman. I'm growing a second colony specifically to cut up. It can be fragged anytime. Actually I'll just cut you one now and bring it to when I come up
