The Elusive Symphyllia Wilsoni

[bighappybuddha]

About a month or so ago I took a risk and bought this coral from DD....and honestly it was half way based on my wife telling me she thought the tank needed more pink. So perfect, a good excuse to spend some money...

I was doing some reading/research this morning toward me and my buddy getting scoly farm going over the next few years. I was reading about fragging scolys but also found a good...little older, but a cool read about the Symphyllia Wilsoni.

Here's the link where you can find both articles and a few pictures of my 'wife's pink beauty'

Sincerely,

My buddy stopped over this morning for coffee and snapped these with his new jazzy iphone5...so limited but worth sharing. I'm loving how this one is coloring up. Just under the early morning actinics...no photoshopping here.
