How would you go about bringing out yellow in a bta? Is it related to phosphates and or nitrates?
Generally speaking playing with nutrients can enhance some color. There is a middle ground of course. To little nutrients and it will not be healthy, to much and same result. I have found that feeding krill and the light spectrum have the biggest effects. But thats only my personal experience.

That is very important. Personal experience should never be discredited.

I'm asking, because as much as I looked through bubble tips. Only one pops up with the green tips and yellow/Orange colors with the speckled foot. Lemon drops.
I love this bta, the seller hasnt replied to.my email. As he sold this one dirt cheap. I don't know why. I read a few people have lost theirs over time.

This is one I would like to preserve.
No lineage, most I know came from coral collections. From what I read. They also, always morph. CC on their webpage states no 2 are ever a like.

Of course, I'll have to wait on the original seller to reply.

I thought it was similar to a lemon drop when I saw it.

I would love for that day. Lrt did call first. But, implies shipping. :eek:
You live close enough we wouldn't have to ship. And I can help you ship to @LRT I have experience. But he may have to get in line ;) if he wants first class service:)

BTW. I am seriously looking for opinions,



Do they look alike ?
Edit: top picture is not mine.
I’m no expert on anything, but they do look very much so alike! If that’s actually a lemon drop, that would be crazy.

(is my third in line sport still reserved? ;Wideyed;Wideyed)

Well yeah words are just words unless we action them but im sure you been nice and actioned lots things in your life already ^_^
I don't know. I feel like I failed so many times. People in need, and somehow I became a coward to approach and ask if they needed help. I see people helping animals all the time. My mom would smack me if she saw I denied a helping hand to another human being.
