Mark, I will get a current photo of it. It is finally starting to throw out some branches after encrusting forever. The color is very nice, not quite as glowing as the frag in the picture but very nice none the less.

Steve, I wish I could. For some reason, I never shot a picture of it and its now in QT with all of my other corals. :eek: The good thing about everything that is going on, is that I will be putting back my corals in my order of favorites making sure they are in prime photo locations :lol:

Thanks bro, I was going to respond in my thread, but then I just forgot. After this is all said and done, I will be setting up a new QT system. I might need some corals to put in there ;)

I bought a frag from a coral event this past weekend. I was told its A. Microlados so I did the google and I found that my frag looks like ... Upscale Microlados.
Heres the pic, can someone confirm?

That is the Upscales if you got it from the Fragfarmer booth. I got my colony from James (Naka) who got it from Travis @ Upscales.

Shortly after I got it Feb of this year.

And a pretty poor picture of it a couple months ago. (to the left of the prostrata).

CaReefer, Yes I got it from FragFarmer.

This is good news because i'd rather not get a wild acro that was just cut off from the colony.

Thanks! Aquaculture rocks!
 
yes sir thats it, sweet coral got mine from upsacles a few years back its huge now. There is a similer coral getting around here in the northeast the Kedd acro. Super slow grower but crazy with color.

Kedds Acro is almost identical or even the same I think. I saw the kedds acro 2 yrs ago in his tank and its a georgeous piece.

At least some folks know about Kedd's Yellow Bali.Like I mentioned it's been around for many years now.I guess folks really forgot how sweet it really is.:cool: Kedd is the same guy who name the Zoo's (Kedd's) zoo's.He wasn't much for trading or shipping corals.Like pulling teeth.But he want my Purple Monster at the time,and we made the trade.Not even sure if he is in the hobby anymore?He has some really cool stuff,a lot of people didn't know about.But I would say wild guess,that's frag is about 5 years or more.That's when I got it.So it seems this frag has resurfaced again.Which is really nice to see.

Cool I see you mentioned Fonda.We are best of friiends.I visit her 3 weeks before her melt down.We both got Kedd Bali at the same time.What really strange here is.I got everyone of of her high end sps corals.She wanted me as a back up.And wouldn't you know lost it all.I'm sending a huge box of frags to her the 29 of Oct.Also have to grow all these new ones for her also.Because these are her High end Exotics.:cool: She was heart broken !Years of collecting gone....

I think everyone on the tri-state area here knows Kedd. One of the generous guy I have met... His yellow Bali was really huge and colors are amazing. He did mentioned that he got it long time from Bali. In here we also calls them Kedds Acro....
 
mine is but a baby... just starting to grow and get some color after months of being idle
(and yeah, there is a lot of biofilm on the eggcrate... been stirring up detritus a lot lately)

Kip, How are your tank battles coming along? Your frag looks a lot like mine. The original frag is a lot darker than the new growth.
 
yeah, the original frag hasnt grown or done anything... but where it covered the plug, new stuff is growing well

tank troubles... i had it whipped for a while, then some things changed at work and i ddidnt have time to keep up the way i should... then i ran an autofeeder during vacation for a week and the cyano/dino/etc is back... i am in the process of taking care of it again

in the meantime... 90% of the corals are looking great!
 
Sorry to hear Kip. Hang in there. It seems like it is always one thing or another :(
 
this SPS is a slow poke in my tank. So far it has completed encrusting the disc and a new branch off the disc is forming.

It did slightly brown out but the new branch is looking better.

pics tonight.
 
I bought a frag of microclados from Steve Tyree at the NWCFM last August. It was only an encrusted disk at the time, and wa pink. Well, it has shot up a lot of little branches since then and is about to take off...but it's still pink! And I don't see the polyps at all (typical in my tank as I have a nipper). I can't figure out the coloration though...

edited: mystery solved. This is what I've got (from Tyree's website):

What a difference a "c" makes.

I'd like to get a frag of the Kedd's if it's still around. Anybody have one for sale?[:lol:
