    It is Tatted4ever
    majority of pieces when I purchase are either a cream or light brown colour , but often the growth tips have some colour so you can at least have an idea of what the future colour will be

    I think based on my previous experiences of bland coloured SPS under my lighting, that this coral will colour up purple or blue.

    That is a deal. They could use some color, but at that price, you can't complain much. How long you going to be in China?

    Wow! I have a documentary for you to watch:

    Manufactured Landscapes (2006) - IMDb

    Opened my eyes to a lot of what Chinese are doing for the world.

    Nice additions, Steve! I can't wait to see what colors the brain will show. The acro is also a nice mystery. Maybe once it colors up nicer it will be better to ID it.

    Congrats on the new corals! And the good deal as well! You can't beat those sizes at those prices!
