| "Here is one of the reasons
I don't attempt IDs with Acros. This is an example of either A. solitaryensis
or A. efflorescens; I've had proponents of both camps argue vigorously
about this. It was also a hot topic on the reef boards for awhile and
apparently ended without consensus. Whatever it is, I accquired it in
10/01 through Steve Tyree at Dynamic Ecomorphology. It shipped very well
and came in at about 2" in diameter. It is now approximately 3" in
diameter and encrusting the rock surrounding it quickly. I AM a tad disappointed
in it's failure to really 'color up' so far though, as I've seen some
wonderfully colored specimens in similar light to mine. I mean, you'd
think with all the controversy surrounding it's name, the least it could
do is blush a little". |
