This pic was taken with a flash.

Definitely a sweet looking ric. Wish I had a frag of it.

looks like the frags are allready attached to the pieces of rock rubble.. how did you do that?

oh yeah,, Very Pretty!!!!

discented · #8 03/23/2007, 07:32 AM

i cut it with a razor on the rock... then took a screw driver and placed it between the two pieces and hit it with a hammer. worked out nice on this piece.

Now I just hope the pieces do well. crossing my fingers...

When I clicked the link, I thought I was going to see a pinkish/purple center with green around it... looks like orange/green. Nevertheless, it looks really nice!!!

Here is a picture of mine:

thanks for answering

I have Floridas and they are prospering. my ricss are at the same location are not doing nearly as well. do rics require less light?

Alright you have your florida ricordea which like intense light even halides...On the other hand you have your yuma ricordeas which like bright light just not halides...

hope this answers your question,

gemini aquarius(t) · #19 03/25/2007, 12:50 AM

The mother had to be 4-5 inches from one side to another, it was huge...
