Are these gigantea?

Yes, but unless you photoshopped them, they don't look like that is their natural color.
Is there base blue also?

I just found them tonight. These are for sale at Atlantis. I always figured that Atlantis 'enhances' their pics
I wasn't planning on buying them, just testing my ability to identify them from hadonni. I'm still researching before purchasing
Thanks
Oh, would you mind posting some recent pics of your set ups in my thread: http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=924051

I would RUN, not walk, to buy a healthy colored gigantea at that price... tough to tell from their low quality pic though.

They look nice, but risky when buying them over the net. Just my .o2

I read on another thread that the blue one has sold and the purple isn't looking too good. The big yellow one from a week ago died.

Those are nice Giganteas but the picture is enhanced imo.

IME, the best place to buy giganteas from is from www.phishybusiness.com

Serdar WILL NOT ship you an unhealthy one.

I went to atlantis yesterday to see that purple gigantea. It is indead s.gigantea, but is small and not doing to good IMO. I decided to passed on it. They want $160 for it. Mouth was gapping, not vibratting, but is very colorful .

Blue one sold, purple one flat and gaping and yellow one RIP.

Atlantis had some beautiful SPS' and generally great looking corals. There was a very big magnifica that could have been healthy but the color was not appealing. Their beautiful corals makes me think I should go back to my original plan of SPS's on the left.

Aquatic Gallery had two day old Goldbar Maroons and beautiful RBTA 's that they propogated (forced division). Corals looked great too. [/QUOTE]
