SPS - Eye Candy

[myzislow]

by far the best rainbow delight from vivid I have ever seen. Good job! From what Ive heard most people cant get anywhere close to the coloration shown on their site. Yours looks great.

I guess that low par brings out it's colors.

thanks guys. The older frag shot was taken approx. 6 or 7 months after I got it. I was tempted to move it a few times but I'm glad i didn't. Vivid was using Ushio bulbs and I happen to have Ushios as well. Maybe this may be a huge factor? Kinda nervous because I'm planning on switching to a sumpower t5 fixture soon. Everybody says it's a light hog but I borrowed spsaddicts apogee quantum par meter and surprisingly the par is 200 which is borderline moderate/high light. Hope this helps for all the rd owners

Did you grow this? Looks impressive. The white balance looks a little off though. I don't think that would be humilis....

def. not A. Humilis. Looks great either way. Pic looks a bit funny to me as well but that coral is obv a knockout regardless.

Where did you get it?

 

[DBarsotti]

^yeah i'd definitely like a frag of that pretty little sucker

 

[darryl_v]

Nice stuff DBarsotti! Is this Hawkins?

If not I think I have the same one but larger

 

[DBarsotti]

that piece is similar to the hawkins, same spicies i think, but a much more mossy green with bright blue tips instead of the dark green/purple/blue like the hawkins.

heres a picture of my hawkins

 

[darryl_v]

Ya...I think I have the same one. I got it about a year or more ago on a marcultured shipment. Now that it is bigger I think it is a.awi, so a different species than hawkins....very similar but more of a true bottlebrush.
