Michael7979 Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Maybe its the picture but ......... it looks too green to have OR/CA tort lineage but I have seen OR torts with dark polyps before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reefnjunkie Posted December 19, 2010 Author Share Posted December 19, 2010 Maybe its the picture but ......... it looks too green to have OR/CA tort lineage but I have seen OR torts with dark polyps before. Its probably the pic there is no green per se, its a turquoise for sure and I have 2 different Oregon torts that resemble the same color, its the polyps that are throwing me, I’ve not seen the OT with Purple polyps and these are PURPLE, also it has the body smooth like the Purple Monster (Some type of Loripes maybe?) I dont know scientific names just those catchy marketing names. Thanks for all the offers to take it off my hands-Like you, when I saw it I went-(drooler) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael7979 Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Get ahold of Travis at Upscales. If I remember right his OT had dark polyps on it. If they were purple or blue I do not know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberduck9 Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 my OT has the same My OR Tort has the same polyps. there a deep purple. almost blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isaac Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 It looks like Oregon Tort man. I have seen the polyp color morph to purple or brown depending on lighting and parameters. The true test will be if it morphs to look like your other Oregon Tort in your system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
