Do you have a colony pic of your CRT Rainbow Explosion? (Hung's Rainbow) under blues. My tank is overstocked and I'm still an intermediate with acros but it's top on my list to get once I'm confident.

I am also using Radion g5 blue's and wanted to know what template or schedule you are using?
I like the more blue look and standard AB+ is too white for me.

My piece isn't a prime example of its full potential since it's been fragged one too many times lol
but here it is. I'm sure there are other folks with more impressive looking colonies of it.

I use the AB+ schedu;e with 100% peak for 3 hours. I'm not home for most of the day, so whenever I look at the tank I just put it on all blues.



Now for some more eye candy!

Franken-Tenuis frag, I glued 5 different strains of rainbow tenuis together, I’ve done this before in the past and it seems like there always is a dominant strain that takes over. We’ll see how this round goes!

Thank you! I've seen one colony in person that lived up to the hype but it seems like no one has one over a couple inches tall. Heard it's a slow grower.

Very slow my old colony was about the size of a tennis ball and I had it for 5 years, it’s definitely one of the nicest acros I’ve ever had!

wow thanks man!
What do you mean exactly with 3hrs peak?
U mean 3 hrs all channels 100%
and after that you only use blue channels?
Would be cool to see your schedule :)

Say hi to the slow growers club!

Matt V Rainbow Envy

RRC Orange Planet, who else has one of these?? I'd like to see one grown out!
It’s weird how different acros can be system to system. Matt V rainbow envy is probably the fastest growing Tenuis I’ve ever owned. Almost weed like for me. Grows faster than my bryopsis

This is what pain looks like. After 5 years I suffered another incredibly painful tank crash. While I was away at school I lost pretty much all of my collection with some remaining pieces in my other tank and my friends. This was tragic to see, but I’ll be moving forward and building back up!

The fish look good. Good Luck.
