TOPIC: Photo of the Week - 4.24.2011

Photo of the Week - 4.24.2011 2 years 3 weeks ago #5248

Here is a great photo of an ORA Green Birdsnest posted by Alan Morehead.  Alan does his part to lessen the burden on natural reef ecosystems by regularly fragging his corals and trading/selling them to other reefers.

Beautiful colony. I was lucky enough to get a frag of this from Alan this past weekend. He said it is a fast grower so hopefully my tank will do it justice.

Great pic too!

Yay! B)

The other thing I like about this coral is the polyp movement with alternating flow. I'll have to take a video sometime to show that, but it's pretty cool to watch.

I saw this for the first time Friday and it looks even better in person. It is so rare for me to see a large colony of any type of coral, when I see a great example like this I just cant get enough.
