Here is a pic of the Pink Flamingo frag we got from BC some time ago. Only BC we have that hasn't grown. It just keeps coloring up, taunting us..... Not a tweaked picture, just cropped.

stubborn flamingo eh? yeah tough to say. i have pieces of this in every tank i got and multiples in a few even. not a fast grower especially when its small, but I haven't had too much trouble coloring it up under halides, t5 and leds. in the last couple years i have had it. I think once it fully acclimated you'll see the goods! I see yellow in the tips so thats a good sign at least;) i have found it to be more of a moderate light acro as opposed to full blast.

thanks for sharing man. would love to see some of the others that are doing better lol

I wasn't meaning to complain about lack of growth, more just to say "pretty colors" :p

I'll post up some of the others later :)

i'll shoot mine one of these days. very similar. the purple is a little tougher to really get nice color out of but its got yellow polyps, especially at the tips which look amazing!
