Pink Lemonade Micros

Thought I'd share a fairly new frag. I'm pretty happy right now. I got this as a 2 polyp frag, now it has 3 more little babies growing out. It's been about 2 months now.

All Delight, Very nice. I have a two polyp piece of the Pink Lemonade Micro as well. A baby polyp is growing next to one of the main polyps. I am really stoked about it. Mine is more pink in the outer rim than the red. I have it very low at this point acclimating for another week or two, then I plan to move it up where it will probably color up real nice like yours. Sweet photos. This is one plump Micro huh?

danoreef - thank you, its a micromussa

dustin - thank you

slojmn - Where did you get yours from? I got mine from Mike. The first picture was the 2nd day after I got it. The intensity faded pretty quickly. Maybe after 2 weeks, it looks as it does now. Mike said it probably has to do with out different lighting. He kept them under 400 watt 20k. Right now I have it under 72 watt pc's. After I get my ATO I'm gonna switch back to my MH, but its only 150 20k. We'll see. At least I know its happy since babies are coming

All Delight,
I got a couple polyps from doc. It is pretty intense except that outer red edge. I think it will get more intense as I move it up in the tank. I am just going really slowly. The first time I bleached it out and lost the polyps. This is my second try. I think yours is still quite spectacular in the second picture.

Lam, In person the difference was much greater. It was like night and day. I guess it goes both ways since some morphs have colored up better, some like this case, not as good.

I receive a small frag from Chris over 1.5 ago and wish I would have held on to it. It grew from 1.5 polyps to 4 really fast.
