Cool acro with black polyps

[ValorG]

Grew this acro from a frag pack from ASD. Polyps at the tips are green then get darker as they go towards the base. Look almost black. What do you guys think?

Looks awesome.

Looks brilliant. Love the colouration.

looks like a nasuta and it should have blue pyolps

Very original and cool. I don't think I have seen black polyps before.

Since you asked... They look dark brown to me Nice coral whatever color you want to call the polyps.

An interesting look for sure. +1 for nice coral.

IMHO, the darkness of the polyps is exaggerated by the polyps not being fully extended. I've seen what I thought were black spots on my purple stylo, yet when I got out my macro lens, they were just retracted polyps.

Nice looking nasuta, I think the polyps are kinda brown. I think under the right light they may turn dark purple kind of like the tips. Would be nice to see the coral in regular white light.

Wow that is cool. I haven't seen polyps that dark on an acro before

Nice piece. But I bet when more white light is shown. The polyps aren't black?
