Don't you love it when you get a frag & it changes on you

[cham]

For the better.

Its been a little while, but I believe I bought this as a regular blue tort. Today I just noticed a green base coming through and it looks like I have an ORA blue tort (which I love soooo much better than the regular blues)

Awesome

My camera is horrible & the user is slightly worse. Hard to see but there is some green coming in.

Thats what i think is so neat about sps you can get an ugly brown frag and with good water that sucker can turn into somthing really nice!

Thats why I bought this guy a week ago. Hoping for some nice color change.

Not sure, its a good size colony (only one I own) and it was very stressed out when I bought it.

Sometimes I think I see some green in it. I swore I saw a shade of blue in the tips. It was advertised as a "acro".

That pic is with it in interceptor QT, so its not really happy at all.


If its red, I will lay an egg

That would be awesome

I received two stags free from someone who was moving. Both were browned out. In the last two weeks the base has begun to turn purple/blue, and the polyps are turning green. I can't wait for them to color up completely.

Could also be a Cali Tort. I dont know if they are the same thing or not but I picked up a deep blue tort frag from SITC for like $18 and a couple of days under my lights and it is developing the green base like the Cali tort

Cham, i'd love to get pics, but with the 20k's and a lack of camera knowledge i don't think they'll turn out. I'll try tomorrow though and see what happens.
