| Fire Coral  | Darth Maul Porites Check out these awesome porites I bought at a local frag swap. I don't really know much about them other than the fact that the aren't cheap, and the aren't easy to get your hands on. My frag: (looks better now because it was just put in the tank when I took this pic)  Vendor's pic: (close up)  What do you think? |

| Elegance coral | Re: Darth Maul Porites Does it have polyps like a cyphestrea or hardly any tentacles like in the pictures?

| Reef Lobster  | Re: Darth Maul Porites I think the vendor is good with photoshop!  Nice piece nonetheless!

| Fire Coral | Re: Darth Maul Porites I'll post a newer pic of my frag which looks a lot more like the vendor's pic. Mine has colored up a lot since I pt it in. He did not photoshop the pic as I have seen the mother colony in person and it is being kept under 400 watt metal halides 20000k. It looks different under my not so powerful high output T5s. He also used a macro lens to take the pic, I did not. |

| Reef Lobster | Re: Darth Maul Porites Well the vendor pic shows spectacular color. If it is close to that, then I am jealous that it isn't in my tank!
