But mine is not even close to this and I don't believe it ever will be.
Still a little disappointed about this one

It's neon green

Aww I miss ultimate frags! Anyone know how hes doing?
Mitchreef has a pretty sweet orange acro come to think of it.

 

[akabryanhall]

Here it is

Stupid percent signs, lets try this

[Kataro]

How about mine. It's not growing much yet, but it's held this color for 5 months now. As a matter of fact, I moved it to higher lighting and it lost ALL of the green coloration! And to top it all off, it's a Tabling Acro!
This was last October:

Here is today:

It's hard to capture the actual orange color with the camera, but it's a REAL Orange piece.

Hey Troy, when it grows out some more maybe we can do a frag swap!

You know, I feel really bad for you guys. I tell ya what, to help you out, I will gladly take some of those greens/blues off your hands so you don't have to look at em anymore. Just let me know.

:wink:

That's a fake picture unfortunately... I have a monster 12" colony of that acro it's got red tips it comes in yellow with orange/reddish tips but then morphs to green with red tips....a nice
Piece but it don't look like that... Sorry...

I think this is his problem....

Some of the sarmentosas have orange tips, others have pink.

Hunt down a frag of the waynesreef rainbow acro if you don't have it yet. Mine has just started to color up great and take off, and it has a unique red tip to orangeish body to green base color scheme. Sometimes the encrusting edge is light blue too.

I once bought a frag of a yellow acro, now im sad that i never took a picture. It was literally a highlighter yellow(not as bright though) it kept its color for about 5 months until i broke down the system and gave it away to someone i cant even remember. It was one of those pieces that i regret not keeping track of, that and an awesome purple acro i brought back from near death....

It's not all orange, but has some insane orange tips. THIS IS NOT MY PIC

Iwasaki 6500K 400 watt bulbs produce the best reds and orange/yellow sticks but not good for other favored colors. Red tables and milles to dye for ,really red. Used to be blue acros were the holy grail.

 

[MitchReef]

You're on the list Eric....These guys don't believe it's really going to be an Orange Acropora but it's over 5 months as an orange acro so far!

I just talked to the guy I got it from, I will see if he has a colony picture.

 

[Troylee]

I'll trade ya when your ready and I didn't doubt it was orange I just think it has more potential from the pics I have seen... You think it will stay like that or get more intense?

 

[MitchReef]

I'm thinking brighter. It's much better looking in person. Now we gotta start singing the "Grow Coral Grow" song.....

Like I said I'm trying to get a pic of momma.....

 

[SPS Addict]

Yellow? Here's one of mine. :xd:

 

[KLR]

I want to know who got that orange millipora a few weeks back!!!!
