FS: 2 SPS Colonies


I have a new order coming on Saturday and need to make some room in my tank.

First coral is a Pocillopora(sp?): I started this coral from a 3 branch frag about 2 years ago. It has been fragged numerous times since then. The coral currently is approx. 8" in diameter. Color is a greenish hue on the end of the polyps.
Asking $70 for it.

BTW, I had to do some photo-editing of the pic because I only had the 400W XM and the actinics on. I de-rated the blue hue. It is closer to what you actually see with the naked eye now.

Next coral is an unidentified Acropora. It is probably about 6" in diameter and I have had it close to 1 year. Extremely healthy, great polyp extension. The color is an overall brown/tan with green hues here and there. $60

Try it in your tank and see if it will color up on you....do I sound like a salesman yet??hehe

This pic is not photoshopped at all..just resized...

I've seen those in person. I can't believe your selling them. Those are two really nice colonies! If I only had room!

Thank you a ton Greg, when I saw both in person I had to have them both. Glad the little woman agreed, didn't think she'd put up much of a fight. Both are doing great with plenty of polyp extension already. Both can be seen on my web site. The bonus frags are doing great too. Couldn't be happier.

LOL
I had to do it, I needed something that I could see on my ReefCam during the day, the frags were just too small. But honestly the Pocillopora was my number one choice once I saw them in person, then I just decided to take the other one too cuz I have lots of open space.
But no worries, I plan on sharing the frags as time goes by.
