My LFS fresh cut this frag of pink lemonade for me 2 days ago. At the store the colony was yellow with a ton of PE. In my system it’s brown and no PE. Does it look okay? Is just this stress from being freshly cut? Or is it too much, not enough light?

My water params are:
Alk 8.0
Ca 410
Mg 1400
P04 0.06

Did it look like it did at the lfs when you first put it in your tank? I only ask because the light setup they were using could have been different.
It looked the same as it does now I think. They run a led/t5 combo. I’m running led only.
 
Turn up your blues and see if you can make it look like it did at the store. That might let you know if it was lfs lighting.

Lol I’m dumb. I glued it with its “dark side” facing forward. I turned it around and now it’s all bright and colorful! :rolleyes:
