SPS ID?

[Gomer]

This is a frag of a coral I got from Ian. It was brown and hiding in the back of his tank. He commanded me with an iron fist and baseball bat to color him up (will be a future DBTC). Ian didn't remember what it was. Anyone have any idea?

 

[iani]

I know its some kind of tricolor (valida, nana, secale, cerealis). How is the rest of the piece doing?

 

[Gomer]

Coral is slowly coming along The main "body" isn't in the top high light tray where the frags are. That will change when I re-do my racks :-D

The color of that base + polyps @ tip make me envision that being a pretty sweet piece!

Oh and just to get this out of the way 24

 

[Gomer]

! just for that, I will have a new guessing game!!!

 

[sfsuphysics]

Damn!

Btw what's with the sticks in that picture? Thought you didn't like them

 

[Gomer]

I got sticks, mounds, puddles and globs. I blame Jeremy for getting me started on them, and so should you! /shakes fist

 

[tuberider]

I'm gonna say valida just due to the appressed (sp) coralites. Wait for it to grow out and see.

 

[Gomer]

I've been successfully growing out a "brown out" special

What's with the puddle falling off the plug behind that one?

 

[Gomer]

oh, it just looks like it is way falling off (more than it is). the front SPS is on a plug centered on a cross (coral cradle) and the back guy is in a hole (standard frag plug)
