Dead Pink Lemonade?

[Mercury2234]

Hello - I received this pink lemonade frag a couple of weeks ago and it arrived in bad shape.

Might be a silly question, but is the frag dead? What’s throwing me off is that I would have thought to be fully white if it died.

Thanks!

Hard to tell with all the blue, can you post a white picture?

 

[Gumbies R Us]

I agree, need a photo under white light to really see how it is doing

Where is it?

Incredible that a vendor would send a “frag” that small. That’s bad review territory for me.

Not dead yet, I still see a little color.

I agree. That is one of the worst "frags" I've seen.

It's looking pretty rough.

If there is flesh on it, long recovery but possible. No flesh it’s toast.

Thanks everyone. How long before I’ll know it’s truly dead? If no change in 2-3 weeks or possibly months?

Doesn’t hurt to just leave it in! But if there’s diatoms or any type of algae growing on it ur free to toss it. When they die the skeleton is exposed and is white. Than it turns brown from algaes

Sorry, man that looks pretty dead to me. I think the only color we’re seeing is reflections of the light and maybe some algae that has grown over the skeleton.

I would be mad if I paid money for that. If they tossed it in as an extra, that would be different.

Yep, it was extra.
