I know some of you guys (and gals) out here have some awesome colonies of hammers, frogspawns, torches etc.
I want to see some pictures. They can be professional or taken with a web cam I don't care.
These were some of the corals that got me into the hobby in the first place. Let's see some pics of your colonies...

I just picked up this Euphyllia divisa the day before yesterday. This picture doesn't do it justice however.

That is a crazy looking hammer coral, almost looks like a cross between a frogspawn and a hammer.

yeah it is. I have the mother colony and a frag i got from it. the mother colony is the strangest of the two.... i guess it has been hanging out with the frogspawn a bit too much. :p

One of the LFS near me has puple torches in stock. Ive never seen anything like them. Normal looking but with lipstick purple tips.

Maxx, are the skeletons still white on those? Sometimes these things get dyed over in Indonesia before getting shipped to the states. I don't think it's very common anymore, much more common with leather corals.

No these are not dyed. These are healthy, purple torch corals. My first thought was that these might be dyed, but closer examination showed this was their natural appearance.

If my tank was ready, You'd already be seeing it. Also the LFS is 45 minutes away.....
