ora red planet morph

[jnbrex]

I just recently got an ORA red table planet coral from my lfs, and instead of the pink and white colors I have seen, it is a very deep red with green under it. Who likes it?

My corals take on that color pattern when my lights are due to be changed. Just FYI.

high light = white & pink

low light = green & red

Yeah, its no morph. The Red Planet will change color readily depending where it is in the tank. It will change back too. Try moving it around till you like the way it looks and grows. I like the green and red tones better so I keep mine a bit lower in the tank. It still grows well too.

yep. i just moved mine to a dimmer area to get more green. growth has slowed quite a bit though.

I thought the parts that were white were due to new growth?

Don't worry,
I have it and it is red polyps with green base.

I love my ORA Red Planet ... I have it placed high up under my 250W 14K bulbs ... it's White and Pink (very little green). A must have piece for all SPS collectors. :)
