    I know I should get rid of the Palys, they grow at an alarming rate. They make great photo subjects though.

    Yup looks nothing like the image I ordered.

    Must have gotten beaten up in shipping and browned out.

    Oh well a challenge I guess.

    It should. Mine was pretty resilient...mine came in gorgeous, and as I was cutting of the awful ORA plug, I broke the mini colony in pieces. All pieces recovered within the month, colored up beautifully, and have been growing FAST!

    Nice green/blue to that frag. Yours looks so much different then mine uggg. It is a decent size piece though..

    I worried about a smoother skin acorpora. Millepora ship so much better.

    I have seen some ora corals come to the lfs where I used to work and they looked pretty rough. They don't typically ship very well. Just my .02. It will turn out to be a beauty.

    Yeah, I've always gotten them an ugly brown color. They light acclimate and color up fast though. I think they grow them under ideal growing, not coloring conditions.

    Beautiful shots and corals Cheryl.

    More reason to get the palys out, their skirts will not grow much longer than they are now.
