That bluish center one is real nice Snow.

Blue lace that I picked up for a friend. I just happened to take some good pics of it.

I managed to save a lone polyp from an entire colony, too bad the rest didn't make it. :sad:

Before (also before a camera upgrade):

I currently have 16 welsi colonies and one merleti colony in my tank. Some of them are on the same rock that I guess got glued on there before I bought them. I will try and take pics and post later. I have received my gallery info yet so I have to get some site to host then post.
 
Well, here is a picture from my old colony in 2003. Unfortunately, the colony was in advertently sold in my move here to Texas. Check out under the powder blue. So if any of you out there purchased my colony, you really should give me some frags :cry: .

Ryan those merletis you have being held at SP are nice.

I like those blue lace ones lotr. I have some like it but there are so many polyps so close together that the blue doesn't show really well.

Snow those ones with the red with blue middle are awesome. I have never seen any like that with that color blue.

Mitch yours are awesome and you have alot of colonies. Of course that sohal is really sweet.


Well here are mine. Hopefully this works. It took along time to write this post. I don't see how Marc can do all those long post and pics on reefcentral thread.
This first one is kind of blue/green with a green ring.

This next one is red with yellowish/orange ring. Easier seen in the big polyp on left side of colony.

Here is my first blasto ever. It is a blasto merleti that I got from PeterLin. It was originally about maybe 8-10 polyps and in 6 months it is this big.

This is that Blue lace one I referred to. Look at how the polyps are all squished to resemble like a lobo or something.

Here is a green blasto. These polyps are huge.

Here is another combo rock I got from Cpeavy but this one isn't looking to good. I think it was in his qt tank a little to long. Hopefully it will recover.

This one I hope comes through. I got it from Cpeavy as well and it was the one that really got nipped a bunch by his angels. It is the prettiest one I think and soon to be my fave if it comes back. It is a green rim with the prettiest light blue. There are some more polyps hidden on the back side too.

Here is a cool shot with alot of my blastos and a really neat stick pagoda I got. All of the pagodas I have seen have all been kind of plating.

And of course I must post my first acan I just got.

Nice post Chris. See, you can do it. ;)

So are Blastos going to be the next Coral du'jour?
 
I've always thought these were blastos...but the polyps are much smaller and cramped together compared to you guys...this guy is over 2 years old and a very slow grower

Nice post Chris. See said:
They have always been for me. The rpoblem is that even the wholesalers can't get very many. I have had standing orders for all they could send me and never got but a couple. If you know what you are looking for you can sometimes find at the LFS mislabled.

IMO when the price of acans drop, blastos will still be very expensive.
