Yeah, ditto on that Rich, I hope everything is okay, keep us posted
Melev: Well, hopefully mine may go red in the future. Another case of "I know that one, its in my tank". But it started out pale orange..
Rich: Condolences. I've lost a couple colonies 2-3 months ago. I hate that. Dang mushrooms are thriving though..
Justin: Right after we all started hearing about the Baby's Breath & shortly before the birth of this thread, someone started PMing offering me a BB at a "good price". Something kinda kept me from totally taking the bait. And then that person was blacklisted here.

Well, I'm sure I could find a home for that second specimen! That thing is insane! Number 1 ain't too bad either..
Its the Acans that bought it? Funny, I've seen 2-3 threads lately about problems with Acans..
Well, it still sucks. Sorry about your loss.
Sincerely,
Matthew

Summer is always a tough time; excess heat and large temp swings would be my guess. It's usually not one factor but many piling on (ie: low magnesium & high heat). People's tanks get into the 80 degree plus range and most AU lords come out of 74 degree and under water in the wild; it's a recipe for bleaching

Very nice favia or micro
Very nice favia or micro
wishntoboutside I really like that 2nd one.
I think I found a real score today from a local tank tear down.
It is some sort of favia or micro not sure.
These pic's are 30 min after putting it in the tank under 14,000k Phoenix only.
I will have to wait a few weeks to see if it will hold this color.
It has a least three colors pink, yellowish/gold eyes, and some version of aqua green.
I will take some better pic' tomorrow.
Colony straight from the camera no adjustments
Top side shot auto white balance
Bottom side auto white balance
Here is a cropped and magnified version of above.
