nice pic - pretty much covers some of the best SPS colors and growth forms in one shot

is that an echinata in the center?

did you start with all frags?

Thank You, Yes that is an enchinata in the middle and yes, every piece in my tank was started as a frag

Corals always have room to grow up . I might have to remove a couple along the way, but IME, corals take care of themselves and as they touch, one will overtake another.

A top 5....Thats a tough one as some corals look better to me from week to week. I think the last time I checked, I had well over 100+ different morphs of acroporas and montiporas.

One day I might be able to capture the yellow tips in this one.

Mark, great shots as always! I especially like the center shot with the Paletta's Pink and Green and setosa. The pink lemonade is looking great as well. That's one of the corals in my tank that I cannot get a good shot of to save my life.

Do you still have the rouge mille?

The Paletta pink tip is definitely a cool piece. I still have the rouge milli and its doing really well these days.

Any pic of the rouge milli and how fast/slow do they grow?

Sorry, but I do not have any current shots of it from the last couple of months. Its one of the corals I overlook sometimes when I have the camera out. It needs a awhile to encrust before it starts to take off.
