Wow beautiful colors on PC:cool:
 
do the red's come out with more growth, or from higher light? or both? ... i purchased a one inch frag and it encrusted and maybe shot up 1/4 inch, it is a lime looking green/yellow with a hint of red in the tip. red/brown polyps.

I have the exact same thing happening with mine. I think that ithey just haven't settled in yet. I have great growth on alot of things in my tank once they take off. I have a friend's colony in my tank right now and his looks great but it is a huge colony that is well established no matter where it is.

Yeah mine was a yellow/green while it encrusted. Covered about 3" diameter before it started shooting up, it seems to be a pretty fast grower. The blue tips came in on my piece once i moved it to a top spot in my tank.
 
Well my PC Rainbow from the first page was moved to LED a few months ago to make some space after it browned out for the millionth time. Over the last two months it started getting a green base with some yellow, then the ugly dull brown body started turning a bit orange, then within the last few weeks it started getting red dots all over it. Pretty crazy. My guess is it will turn mostly red base eventually. Its under a mars led fixture getting 300-400 par with alk around 7.5.

 
I took a picture of mine before I change bulbs. love the way it looks right now. hope new bulbs dont turn it all red
