Dave what kind of lighting do you have your tenuis under??? I got a nice tenuis like about 6-7 weeks ago. Acclimated it under my 250w 10k XM's and it came in cream colored with blue tips. Now the coral has morphed into a green body base with blue almost all the way down the branches.

You piece looks identical to mine. Or mine looks like yours.

I used to be an iwasaki user, but someone twisted my arm into trying these XM's. I loved the colors I got with the iwasaki's.

Nice piece...

Hello Sue! Haven't seen you on RC for a while.

How are your tanks doing? I kept going back to the link I have on your tank but don't see any updated pics.

Not rare, but it's one of my babies. Starting to table out, nice growth. The only coral that really doesn't seem to give a dern about red bugs right now:

nice piece,I've also noticed those hairy,millepora type acros dont seem to get bothered by the "bugs",they sure do love blues and purples though.My bonsai is always the first acro in my tank to show bugs.

Yes, red bugs have put the hurt on all my corals except for that peice and interestingly enough my A.hyaciinith (sp. is all screwed up there).
Even my yellow slimer has had it's growth severely reduced from these things.
I need to get off my butt and finally treat for those bastards.
