Orange passion acro

[Keithcorals]

Does anybody have one of these that has orange polyps?
Mine looks good and is growing fast but no orange polyps. It's in around 350 par. I'm thinking it may need more light.

If you have one that's colored up please post pics.

I'll try to post a pic of mine soon

Where did you pick it up from?

Mine had orange polyps, got it straight from RR. Held that color for months until it peeled away due to issues in my tank.

Got it a few months back from a vendor on another site. Don't know if im allowed to give the name on here. I didn't have the best experience with them and would rather not give the name anyway.

How much light did you have yours under?

I had mine under a AI sol blue at half power, then I had it under a 7 bulb T5 fixture in the bottom third of the tank. Held great color in both areas.

Did you get it from SC? His didn't come from RR and is not the same coral as the original.

Yes
Would like a frag from one of the RR OP but haven't been able to find one. I'm starting to think the OP I have may not get the color I paid for but will give it more light when it goes into my display tank in a few weeks and see what happens.

I've got a decent sized chunk. A bought it of a friend about a month or two ago....it was a small frag he got from RR Canada and he grew it out. It has the orange polyps I would say but it's very subtle. Definitely not as bright orange as I would think they should be or maybe could be. I did see it in person with more orange on the polyps at RR but I think he even has trouble keeping the orange polyps all the time and I swear he has some kinda magic potion for coloring up SPS.

The green and blue are very nice.....

That's the other thing I like about the Orange passion I have the green is very bright and the blue is really nice as well. When I first got my frag a few of the polyps looked a little orange under blue LEDs. I will do my best to get some pics up tomorrow.

Not the best pic ever. Im better at growing coral than taking pictures of them
