I'll try another pic today. It seems like everytime I try it doesn't turn out too good.

I accidentally broke one of the branches off so there already is a frag :D . Let me know when you are ready for them back. I haven't seen much growth yet but the color is pretty good on the tort.

I'm curious to see that color. When the tank is ready I'll come to your house and pick up the stuff. I'm want to see it in person instead of making a drop off at the Subway.

Has that green Dr. Mac coral colored up for you. I like that one the best out of all the coral I had. Actually i had a new frag I got from aquaworks about a month before the hurricane. It was only about the size of a thumbnail and cream colored, but the growth i had in that one month was deep purple. I would have loved to see what that coral would have turned out to look like.

Here are a couple pics of the tort. I can't get a good picture that shows the correct color because it is shaded from direct metal halide light and the actinics screw it all up. The tip is really blue. That doesn't show up in the pictures.

thats an interesting color. In my tank it was a solid deep purple/blue with a hint of green on the tips.

I'm just glad that it didn't lose more tissue then it did. The bottom was starting to fill in nice but thats the part that died.

Yeah, you can't see the superglue anymore but it hasn't really encrusted that much. It has grown taller and the color is a little darker in person.
