why do sps have so many colours?

Is there any distinct advantage and are certain colour morphs restricted to certain locations or are they just mutants that are selectively bred?

Can sps change colour apart from browning out of course.

Yes depending on your light spectrum as well. Sps colours differ from diff light.

Sometimes you buy a sps from reefer tank look very nice but under your own lights it look different colour.also some sps will turn green before brown...

Now white sps is the in thing. One lfs is selling white sps. Can go check it out.

Hurry before it turns into tonga rock!!

andtsg, technically you're not wrong, really. I also read that feeding them TLF marine snow helps in snowyopora growth. :thumbsup:

:thumbsup: haha, I also read that feed a lot also help in colour change ah. from white to brown (cover by diatom) to purple (cover by coraline algae).

Maybe soon some reefers will start a white reef post, inspired by (you know what)
