Ruby Red Xenia

[MixedFruitBasket]

I'm not sure, but I think I might actually have some of this in my tank. I have some Xenia that is far more red than purple. Is there any way to ID other than color? If I can get a photo can anyone here confirm. Most the pictures I've found show it as a ball Xenia. This Xenia is the standard long tentacle.

Thanks.

Check out marine farmers. I think Pablo has some you could cross compare against.

Here's what he has

What light is that under? And mine is significantly darker and more red.

I've been trying to get some red for 3 years from Pablo. Been on a "wait" list.

Photo was taken under 14k settings. The ruby red color will be more noticeable under heavy blue lighting.

Here is mine directly off the camera. Interestingly enough, if you open the same file in photoshop it the color is muted. The direct camera picture is more accurate.

That is under predominantly white light including 10K and 1 purple plus.

Yeah, under blue light mine looks more blue/violet.

Mine probably isn't ruby red if the more orange under white is correct. I'll take some blue light pictures to compare.

I have some from Pablo and it's sort of a dark rusty red orange in my lighting. Nice though.

I saw some that looked identical at the Mod Corals booth at Aquatic Experience
