I picked this paly up in a trade without seeing it first and I was told it was an Agave. It doesn't have the distinctive neon eye that all PE polyps have. What is this?

That could possibly be Agave. It looks like it needs some coloring up. Give it some time atleast it looks healthy :)

This originally came from a reputable seller who has a colony of Agaves. It's not the greatest pick, but it either has the neon eye or it doesn't. It may need to color up a bit, but I don't see the eye coming back?

This guy that I traded had 2 polyps and it looks like he gave me the one he didn't want. He sent me a bad pic of the other polyp that he is going to switch out with me and the neon eye is glowing. Yes it has the watermelon markings. I guess there are PE polyps that loose there eye, or never had it. Thanks for all the replys.
