Brightwell products minus the stones... don't be jealous .. if I see people also posting pics and mine is not the same I try to make it look like it..its a challenge for me.. I have seen Pearlberry pics like 143gadgets that looks like mine...

I covet all of your Pearlberries!!!! Stunning gorgeous pieces. I'm going to have to cave in and get me one.

Darn you people.

If you are going to Macna Marc I will give you a nice piece

PnoyReefeR, brightwell what? I've got 250w radiums on e-ballasts, and don't get color like that. I also just started zeo. Any specs on your tank or dosing stuff? Those are beautiful colors, I'm jealous.

Are you looking at your coral from above by any chance?

Whoops, I just saw your post on the new page, PnoyReefeR. I might be coming home with two frags if I play my cards right, right?

I can't believe I missed this thread. Here are two shots of mine from a while back. I need to take some fresh ones. Definitely one of my favorite corals. Terrific color.

You can take as many SPS in my tank when u come here

 

[melev]

Did you get the "play my cards right" quip, since we'll be at Atlantic City? I'd love to see your tank, but the 1.5 hours drive each way seems daunting.

and a top down from today after a took a few frags off it

Here's mine. I don't run any actinic. Plucked from ORA's tank at MACNA!

^ it can really look quite different based on the lighting... looks really healthy though :0

 

[Znut Reefer]

I find they color up better under 20K or Radiums.

It's actually about 2/3 of the way down the tank, under a good 12" of water. I should cut a frag and put it up high, see what it does.

what kelvin bulb are you using?i know even in my frag tank the perlberry has great color and there is no actinics on it.it does look a bit nicer in the DT which has radiums and vho actinics though.the frag tank has just XM 20K.

How are you guys finding the growth of this coral? The pearlberry is buy far the slowest growing coral in my tank.

Not my slowest by a longshot. The ORA Rose Millie in my tank makes the Pearlberry seem like a Stag!

My pearlberry is a pretty quick grower also..I accidentally fragged mine about a week ago and the wound healed and a new arm has grown about 1/8th inch.. That's pretty quick in my tank.

 

[rigleautomotive]

it grows fast for me now,the first couple months it was slow.

 

[basser1]

Well I guess I'm the odd man out. My pearlberry is definately not one of my faster growers. Mine has a more outward growth pattern than up.
