Green Nepthea

[hartin461]

I have an existing green nepthea that has very little green in it, so the other day I came across another one that was really bright green. Question is will it be ok to set them close to each other or would there be a problem?

They should be ok IMO. If the branches happen to touch you might see the polyps retract, but that's about the extent of it.

Thanks..appreciate the help

If this new one starts to fade in color, give them more light. IMO the more light you give them the brighter their color will be. Mine took about 2 months to regain it's intense green color again.

Great..Thanks for the tip. Just got a small frag the size of a nickel so hopefully will take off..

like carrots said give it more light... my softs were getting paler only with 2 ledbars lights 65watt each.. now i have also ATI 2 x 54 watt and they are colored again... colored softs needs quite more light.
