Hey everyone,
Just got my second acro frag. My first was a “green slimer” that I got for $10 just to see how my system would handle it. I put it in one of the most intense high lighting spots on the tank after about a day’s adjustment and it thrived.
Decided to get another piece (it’s been 2-3 months) and went with one that the store wanted to call a “pink lemonade” acro, which has strong yellow hues mixed in with the green.
I’m wanting to be a little more careful with this piece, as it didn’t come as cheap, but also have read that the yellows turn green if it doesn’t get enough light.
Right now it’s sitting in the sand bed with pretty low, indirect light and seems to be fairly happy, despite being placed in the tank about 12 hrs ago. (No I don’t have a par meter)
What should my process be for moving it up to the top? Am I overthinking it just because it’s a more expensive piece?
