And this is the ORA Acro that I got in today. I am not sure which one it is because the color was faded out. When I got there to pick it up it was mostly yellow with the polops out. Now it is starting to darken up and the polops are bright green. Any ideas?

Let me know what ya think.

Those are great looking additions.That Orange Digi looks like the one I got,kinda/sorta.
That Milli looks like it may be more red or orange.Could turn out to be green.
Either way,They look great.
And better start looking at calcium reactors:D

So Yote, the ORA is a milli? I thought so but wasn't sure. I hope it turns into the Rose Milli http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=597+1492+2292+2376&pcatid=2376
How long does it usually take for the colors to come back?

Looks like a milli to me.
Its hard to say how long it'll take to color back up.I've regain color in just a few days,then other got for a couple of months.Just too much at play there to make a guess.Light,parameters,excess nutrients,all play a roll in that.

The tanks coming along nicely Hoops.
Think I can see some purple starting to show up.

It is starting to cover everything. Even most of the rock that appears white has a purple/pink tint to it. So rocks are already covered and the back is getting covered quick.

Well it has been to long since I have updated so I had better remind everyone I still have a :sfish: tank.
Not a lot happening. All coral and clam additions are doing great. As this is my first SPS tank I didn't realize how fast they grow and how much they can change under different lighting. All is good though. I have been steady on all water parameters for the last couple of months and am starting to really get a feel for the tank and its needs. I know this will change as I begin to add more fish and then start adding more coral. My new reef tank buddy has several more acro frags for me but we are waiting until after I add my next batch of fish. I will post the fish picts and the new coral additions in the next couple of weeks.
As for now I thought I would take some updated shots of everything and post. Maybe you will like my one new addition. Meet Mandy(I wish my wife would come up with a better name for the fish) :)

Here is the emerald crab. Comes out every morning to visit and then it hides for the rest of the day.

Canycanes have really settled in under the new lighting. Didn't think they were going to make it for a while. I would say the head count has doubled in 8 weeks.
[/IMG]
Monti Digi Orange is growing nicely
[/IMG]
Monti Red Cap
[/IMG]
One mystery coral(green one) and the monti was dull green with a brown growth ring when I got it. Now it has a purpleish/brown center with a blue/purple growth ring.
[/IMG]
Wish the pict showed it but the clam has gone from a purpleish brown color to a purple/blue/teal color. It is looking very good.
[/IMG]
And a pic of the Acro Milli. Is has changed so much since I got it home. You can look at previous picts of it in my thread. I believe it is a Rose Milli with green tips.
[/IMG]
Hope you like all the eye candy. Thanks for all the help so far.:wink:
