All three are bad, but the one on the top is seriously ridiculous!!

Do you have trade names and species for any of these?

What's your lighting?

Beautiful - thanks for sharing!
Its just a no name spath I got a few years ago. I think they classified them as milles now instead of spaths.

1. Do you still have the coral?

2. Do you already, or would you be willing to sell a frag or two (wouldn't want this one to get lost...)?

3. If you were going to name it, what would it be (not for the sake of glam, but as a reference point (even BillyOcean Spath/Millie would 'work').

4. In you post, pic #1 and #2 are the same coral, no?

Tyree Purple Monster looks nice under day light purple monster-2.jpg
Perhaps one of the most beautiful, hard-to-keep acros in the lineup! Excellent specimen, and another coral I was really hoping to see pop up. Thanks so much for sharing this photo.

Any notes on the coral species or the lighting in the photo?

I'm excited about this thread because I run alot of white light during the day as some of my favorite corals are old school SPS (Oregon Tort, green slimer, GARF Bonsai, Milka Stylo) and I like to see my fish in all their glory which blues have a tendency to wash out. I do still like to run high blues in the evening to see the coral fluorescing under them. Some corals that look good in white light also look good under blue lighting. Maybe we should identify if the coral will look good under both (I don't mean under high UV either since that will make most corals glow in a whole different way lol). For example Milka Stylo in my tank just disappears when the blues kick in as there is very minimal flourescing (only a slight glow on the tips that only really glows with high UV). I have been looking for corals that look great under whites and still pop under blues so that may be a nice criteria to add to this.
