green acro purple tips

 

It's a Tortuosa which one I do not know, maybe a Cali or Oregon tort that needs to color up more.

 

its a cool tort (i agree this time) really cool if it gets the right parameters!

 

I agree on tort. They love high light and flow.

 

Thanks guys. I bought this from someone local. He had no idea what it was and it was dark brown...real ugly. I originally bought it because I thought it was on an ORA plug and I wasn't paying attention hahaha.. All ORA sps is pretty sweet. I figured I would be able to get it to change colors a little in my tank. Got home and was pissed when I pulled it out of the bag and it was on a regular plug.

The frag turned from dark brown to brownish green. Then we realized we had red bugs. Here is the red bug thread with pics of this frag: http://www.3reef.com/forums/coral-diseases/successful-red-bug-treatment-127399.html

This thing colored up pretty quick after the red bugs stopped eating it.

Anyone else have an idea of what it is?

 

kinda like this?

 

I'd be happy with that. What is it?

 

Mr Myiagi Tortousa, or i think tri color tortousa

 

Here is another pic of that coral if it helps! I think you can see the colors a little better in this one. (Btw we share the same tank!!)



It is gaining more color every day so one of us will be sure to post updates!!
