[CAreefer]

My limited observation skills tell me that the Desalwi has thinner branches and a "bushier" growth pattern. Eric at FragFarmer . com usually has some for sale.

Is it me or is this one sticking above the water (the rings are almost a giveaway), taken during a water change? Or does this tank have an elaborate tide system?

 

[salt-rookie]

Looks like its out of the water to me too. Look at the colors in the water rings at the bottom....Looks like there is some light enhancement to me.

 

[Shawnts106]

Thats definatly out of water.

 

[mushroom head]

Thats awesome how its growing right out of the water! I guess cause of the humidity it can live or somthing.

 

[Shawnts106]

lol, its not growing out of the water, Acros don't do that in captivity... they do something called tableing... where once a tip reaches the surface of the water it starts "tableing" sort of.

 

[cutsupremetrib]

its sexy

 

[salt-rookie]

SALTWATER humidity???

 

[Shawnts106]
