zygote2k May 31, 2009 May 31, 2009 I'm trying to assemble a group of 10 of the most colorful sps available. I prefer color over cost and rarity. If there are any of these avail, I'd like to acquire a frag too.
lanman May 31, 2009 May 31, 2009 Tyree Sunset Montipora - awesome color both under full lighting, and actinics. BRK LE Purple Nurple - Deep purple on medium purple under white lights, and Royal blue under actinics. ORA Green birdsnest - Very bright green. bob

Nate June 1, 2009 June 1, 2009 I was debating puting joe on the list... mine looks awesome and is doing well... Hunter, I ended up getting a Joe from Chris Tran. He had it under a 20k and it it looked very dark. I now have it in my frag tank which is lit by a 10k. I have to say that it is awesome looking now. It is almost identical to the pic I posted.
zygote2k June 1, 2009 Author June 1, 2009 Can Leishman, Robz, or gadgets weigh in? I know you guys have the creme de la creme.
reefmontalvo June 1, 2009 June 1, 2009 Are you acquiring these frags for your service company? If so why not just buy them as a vendor from a wholesaler?
ctenophore June 1, 2009 June 1, 2009 Off the top of my head: Montipora Setosa (orange with orange polyps) Grinch Montipora (neon yellow with neon red polyps) Green slimer Oregon Tort California Tort Purple Monster Birds of Paradise ORA Hawkins Enchinata Purple Bonsai Chips Acropora Palmer's blue milli needs to be on this list. If you like the color blue, this is the coral for you.
zygote2k June 1, 2009 Author June 1, 2009 Are you acquiring these frags for your service company? If so why not just buy them as a vendor from a wholesaler? If I buy them from WAMAS members, there is a much better chance of getting a hardier version of any of these corals. Also, if I order wholesale, then it's not cost effective unless I buy in large quantities. I don't need 40 sps colonies. I also can look before I buy. Here's what I have so far- Blue Tort A. Valida Garf Purple Bonsai Bali Tricolor Green Slimer Green Tort Pink Limeade Supergirl Monti Rainbow Monti I'd like to have these Purple Monster Purple Nurple Monti Sunset Millie Candlelight Acropora Setosa Monti
Leishman June 1, 2009 June 1, 2009 (edited) I like: 30,000 Leagues Lokani Aqua Delight Blue Matrix Ponape Birdsnest My A. Exquistiter My A. Hyacinthus (Red Table) Raspberry Limade Ice fire Echinata There are tons of sick SPS out there, it's just an LPS (chalice) hobby right now. SPS will be back...... Edited June 1, 2009 by Leishman
Sikryd June 1, 2009 June 1, 2009 (edited) Raspberry Limeade & Pink Limeade Aquadelight or Shades of Fall Oregon tort Ice Fire Any yellow shade acro adds a nice mix too. The purple monster isn't all that - even at full grown. Its great as far as a collector piece and a slow grower. But is no where near the color of the Oregon or Cali torts. Unique in its own right, but not colorful really (I have a piece too, but more for the collection/ watching it grow standpoint) Oh and a properly colored up pokerstar blows the Rainbow, sunset, supergirl or the purple nurple out of the water. One of my favorites by far.... Edited June 1, 2009 by Sikryd
