I buy a lot of wild colony's so I always have a few in different stages..its really an art to color up wild stuff and I love the challenge and the adventure in finding something new...I dont mind the process much..it gives me something to look forward to and keeps me learning something new....good luck on yours as well!

Nice! I have had these guys for about five years now I love them! They looked just like your pic when I got them... nice pick up 1342793571-picsay.jpg
Nice polyps...I have some that are really similar to those as well...the Shining Deltas are different but close to what you have in the photo....I will try to get a pic of the other ones I have like yours so you can compare...they look exactly like what you have...

nice...you are lucky to have a good store close...I have to drive a few hours to get to a decent store... but I find myself making coral trips a few times a month...lol..yes a lot of them do turn into turds or just never color up...that always sucks...space is my biggest issue.

Yes they look close like the last ones posted but they are for sure different...I bought another colony from the same shipment and they look like the ones you posted...The Shining Deltas are defiantly different.
