Cyphastrea's - I want it

[emm0909]

I've got the often seen purple base/pink polyp "Meteor shower" Cyphastrea. I've also got the beautiful green Cyphastrea that is at the Reef Shoppe right now. I'm looking for some other variations of the coral. Does anyone have anything out there? I'd be willing to trade either of what I've got for it.

I remember taking down a tank long ago before I got into coral. It was a reef that had gone bad and the guy was selling it all. I came across one live coral in that tank. It was a blue base with yellow polyp cyphastrea. Wish I had done something smarter with that.

I've got a nice torch with a head already removed that could trade also. The pink/green echino from Tom. A bright yellow echino. Those are small pieces. I'd be willing to trade for more if you can make the first part.

Nice pic, live the way they twist together.. If you don't find something locally check out divers den, I was just teasing myself and saw a few different cyphastrea

The echino's both came from tRS. I've got frags of both if anyone is interested. I've got a head of my torch separated as well that I'd trade for a Cyphastrea.

Randy: The sunset is starting to look at little better. Something got thrown off parameter wise and all my SPS bleached (Yet somehow my pickled pepper monti and sunset seem fine). I'm doing another water change tonight. In the effort to figure out what was wrong with my water I found out that I threw away all of my test kits. Good move!

Two of the acans are growing well. One of the single heads is happy but doesn't seem to want to reproduce. The other one that was receding kept doing just that, receding. It's just about gone now. Originally I had it in a decent flow area next to the others that were doing really well. Then I moved it to a protected low flow area and it still did poorly. No clue what happened. I just couldn't keep her happy and she left. LOL.

rjmayes34 - Yes it is the same Cyphastrea at tRS. The green one.

jacksonpt - your polyps are really close together. Cool. It's a little different than what I've got. Mine has a purple base. I'm looking for something drastically different.

Those on Jason Fox are real nice.

Does anyone around here have any Cyphastreas?
