Just Picked Up A Pink Lemonade Acro

Well $39 isnt too bad then. Hopefully it does alright where its at.

 

I`m in Canada, Not many stores here have it but one i know does and hes got a tiny frag of it for himself he ordered it from states for like 100 bucks. So and from reef farmers they still charge an arm and a leg for their limited edition stuff.

That is a beautiful looking frag. Looks gorgeous.

 

The encrusted frag plug looks the best right now. Im hoping the polyps open up on the vertical portion a bit more, not sure if its cause they are getting blasted with so much water.

 

Dingo has one if I remember correctly.

Congrats, I would like to have one.

 

I have no clue how to get these to color up. I got mine at a frag swap last year, and over the next few months it lost its color. It started as a bright yellow, with bright pink polyps.
It is now much greener and just not as bright. Btw I got this and the pearlberry next to it for $30 total. I later realized I had red bugs. SPS does fairly well in my tank, so I am really hoping it colors back up now that the red bugs are gone. I have mine under T5's. I heard these guys are slow, slow growers. I will be going to that swap again in a few weeks, and I know the same guy will be there. I'll ask him what he does!

 

I just came back Sunday night after being out of town for 2 days and found the Pink Lemonade and Green Slimer that I just bought with their polyps retracted. I am wondering if its cause I placed them high in the tank and they are getting too much light. My params are as follows:
Salinity 1.0255
Ammonia 0
Nitrate 0
Calcium 460ppm
Alk 10dkh

 

Really great coral. Very hardy. Mine eventually developed a bit of a blue glow with the yellow and pink!

 

I purchased a 3/4-1" frag of Tyree Pink Lemonade some weeks back from Aqua Life Aquarium. It's doing quite well.

 

Any ideas why the polyps on the pink lemonade and the green slimer are retracted? Thinking the intense lighting?

 

how long have you had them in the tank? What livestock do you have?
