Mine just seems to want to stay green :(
 
Don't know why pink cadillac is so popular. Top down it looks nice, but from the side it's brown with good looking polyps... Here's mine.

The reefbuilders article including this picture drove it's popularity. I've never seen anybody take a picture of it so nice. At one point i was close to these colors but not quite there. It's a very hardy acro which has caused it's price to plummet allowing many to own a piece. That said, very few have it colored up like this or can take/edit such a perfect pic!

It's price is very reasonable now and it's a sweet colored coral. The problem is it's difficult to color up and has to be growing on a consistent basis. I've had many people who have visited in person that specifically point it out on how pretty it is.

It's very similar to VIvids rainbow delight.........great grower, nice price but can be a bear to color up and keep it there. Small pieces and frags always look awful.

Thriving colony..........this is under T5 only. I very seldom see pictures of this coral that are full blown colonies. Get one growing that has grown to 4-5" and has all the white growth tips, inner green body and pinkish/red branches and you'll be rewarded.
