gmerek2 March 14, 2014 Share March 14, 2014 Just a fun little stupid wamas game. If the majority of wamas members guess the right answer then I will swallow a tiny magic black worm. Speculation encouraged and factual information/experiences please share. I bought an acro colony a week or two ago. The owner didn't have much info other than it may or may not color up in my system. I have it placed in low to moderate lighting medium flow near but not on sand bed. Polyps do not seem to have much extension. Owner pointed out slight tiny green on base edges. It takes a trained eye/angle to see. I did not test previous owners water parameters but other SPS looked excellent. I hope my water is cleaner or better lighting conditions and this colors up neat. But thinking this is a coral passed around with high hopes and disappointment. Should be a fun challenge. I'll post results in 4 months.

YHSublime March 14, 2014 Share March 14, 2014 It will color up if you keep your water quality consistent. FWIW, all my acros used to look like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomasaMike March 14, 2014 Share March 14, 2014 i think it will color up and end up being some rare piece...so i'll take the first frag... :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zygote2k March 14, 2014 Share March 14, 2014 I win the bet- It will turn a different color than it is now. Start eating worms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
londonloco March 14, 2014 Share March 14, 2014 I have no idea, and wouldn't want you to eat a worm....double yuk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveS March 14, 2014 Share March 14, 2014 Looks like a tabling soli. I bet with decent water and light, it will turn blueish purple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crob5965 March 14, 2014 Share March 14, 2014 I'm totally fine with you eating a worm, all I ask is that I can witness it 1st hand (and take pictures) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave w March 15, 2014 Share March 15, 2014 I bet it will turn green with envy because you are getting all the worms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crob5965 March 18, 2014 Share March 18, 2014 look man I cant wait 4 months, I hope it turns out to be the most beautiful coral you have ever seen, as long as you end up eating a worm, so can we just fast forward? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmerek2 March 18, 2014 Author Share March 18, 2014 Nothing is colored up at all yet. That makes me sad and makes me want to feed all magic worms to fish. It is probably some extinct SPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveS March 18, 2014 Share March 18, 2014 Gotta give it a couple of MONTHS not weeks. And chances are the colors will only be in the new growth areas. See any new growth yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crob5965 March 18, 2014 Share March 18, 2014 All your Coral looks good, I think you just have to give it time, I think it will look cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Der ABT March 18, 2014 Share March 18, 2014 fastest way to see what its color will be is to take a frag....the new growth yuo force with the frag will start showing the new color alot quicker than the old coral......but what do i know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
