All micros are "Rare" as in I dont have it yet LOL or difficult to obtain or limited in supply per location

Rare further is defined per supply vs demand

ie: Pink Lemonade very little out there (unless you contact Mr. Cherry) But a very high demand

Many indo micros are very pretty and colorful But the non indo Japanese micro that have proven liniage are able to command higher $$$ because everyone wants things they are not allowed to have BUT I have seen many indo micros just as gorgeous as the non

I still prefer the non simply because I cant have it LOL

Pinks and oranges are considered most desireable

Reds and greens are more common

$$$ is often also dictated like this

single colored micros bring $x
double colored micro $xx
three $xxx

ect...

This may seem rather odd but.........

I had a buddy stop by Friday and he pointed this little gem out to me IN MY OWN TANK!! I know, crazy but it happens.

The larger micro came from Michael Bae a while back and the cutting is Pink Lemonade from Doc. I am starting to wonder if Michael was aware of what he put in the bags.

Looks nice Stoney, I am not really seeing the similarity though.
Docs seem way more intense. I am color blind so I can see many differences in the shades between the colonies.

The big polyp micro is very nice indeed.
