Here is a Tierra del Fuego frag I saved from the local fish store. I picked it up a week ago and it has already started to get some green in it after being mostly pale skin tone when I received it. I'm going to use this thread to document its progress:

It is a fussy piece. Keep in mind it is a light hog!

Can't wait to see it grow up so keep pics coming :)

Thanks, I've had it before but lost it. Maybe I can get a pic today when the lights come on. Its starting to get some pink over the green around the rim of the frag plug. I am surprised by how fast its coming back from looking like crap. Only been about 2 weeks in the tank now.
