Shane over a year ago you gave me an acro that was not doing well. I held it for you but when I returned it, it did not make it. I am sure you remember. Anyway. I kept a very small frag of it that did survive.
You will be first in line when this is fraggable!

That looks like a sweeet acro Bruce.  Is it a tricolor?

a bit off topic, bruce what color of MH do you have? the pink birds nest I got from you is doing very well but does not appear very pink at all it is more pale brownish. It is high up in my tank under 20 K MH. I also have a 10K MH and was wondering if I would get the vibrant pink that you have if I moved it over. It's doing so well that i really hate to disturb it unless I could get the pretty color to come out. thanks and that is a very nice acro in the pic.

It is tough sometimes to get anything pink to look very vibrant under 14k or 20k halides. You could either move it under your 10k, or add some pink or 10k supplements to your 20k halides.

I also got a frag of purple poly pink birdsnest from Bruce. It grows very well but didn't color up for a few months. Maybe it just took time or maybe it was the addition of the CA reactor. Then for a couple months the polyps were a washed out pink, now they are turning purple. I also run 10k XMs
