SLASH Coral Growing Contest: Paletta's Purple Porites

[Mr D smack]

Vspeck's frag was D-Smacked...


... and then there were four

This is true

Anyone else still got this? I thought I saw some nice growth on mpcart's frag when I was there a little while back. Mine has see-sawed on me but I think it's getting ready to come back full force.

And here's the original shot for comparison:

I'll get a picture when the lights come on but mine has grown off the tile and onto the rocks. It's up high in the DT.

[Nanook]

Mine died a while back.

Less thank 2 weeks left. When you post your final pic try to make it "top down" as much as possible. It will make comparisons to the starting pics easier.

 

[mpcart]

Sorry for the terrible picture. Mine has grown over the frag tile and onto the rock about 1/4" on each side.

Out of all the final entries received, I would have to award this one to mpcart.

Crap, I forgot to remind everyone on the end date for this contest. It was March 28th but lets go with May 15th now. So you have one week to post your final picture to this thread!

 

[Reeferhead]

You guys need to post final pics today!

I think there is 3 of you left: mpcart, smoothdog, and rbnice1.

Try to make it a topdown shot if you can.

I havent seen anything out of Rbnice in a long time.

Not a great picture but growing about 1/2" off the original square plug.

[smoothdog]

Didn't have time to get a good picture but this should give a good idea of growth/color. I'm sure Mike smacked me down on this one.

Six entered and only two made it to the end. No surprise they're two of our local SPS growing kings. I don't think a vote is needed on this one though. Congrats Mike! Awesome showing!

 

[Saltygram]

Great job Mike!

 

[Pife]

Great work

 

[kegogut]

Nice growth Mike.

 

[smoothdog]

Congrats Mike, great job!

 

[mpcart]

Thanks - nothing like winning by attrition.
