That is the fluorescent teal cespit?

Remember, I have the purple effla if you want it.

I'd like one of these and the YEX.

Hi Josh,
Yes, this the cespitularia or blue african xenia.
Here are some more photos taken w/a flash light and my camera set to macro. Enjoy.

Remember, I have the purple effla if you want it.

Yes I didn't forget. The YEX's are doing much better now.
I will have a frag ready soon for the trade.

Yes, I will have frags of these beauties soon.

Very nice Pablo! What conditions does it like best (lighting & flow)?

What was the length of time between the 2 pics in the first post?

Hi Katty,
They seem to like moderate to bright light and moderate to strong flow.
Currently I have them under T5 lights (10k/actinic)

What was the length of time between the 2 pics in the first post?

4/5 months

Thanks,
It took about 4/5 months to evolve from the first photo the the next.To see the beautiful reflective spicules, I just use a flash light when is dark on the reef.
