    I am so bad with species that I am going to say I have done my part with the clarification request. Those colors look awesome already on the Garf.

    I have read that acros almost need a microscope to be able to tell the difference because some of the species look so similar.

    That acro looks like it should have great color when it settles in.

    But at first they were like ehh what's this? Not that interested... Then after tasting some they went crazy!
