Here's a closer shot. But I hope you know, even if yours looks exactly like the pink lemonade, it isn't because it's not from the same lineage.
That looks like the same as mine.
As for the lineage thing I will not get into that.MINE COST LESS

With all due respect, the coralite structure on yours looks nothing like the pink lemonade.
ok

Its kind of a crazy coral - especially seeing RF new blueish frag! My MH has been off for a couple weeks and he's been shaded - and the purple leading edge similar to fishypets has spread to axials. Its cool though - no matter what color it turns - its either green/yellow/purple or pink. How many corals turn purple when abused. ;-) I think the coolest thing about the coral is the polyp with the one extra long "tentacle".
Check out RF description. I think they recently changed it on their auction since I don't remember reading this a few days back (might be my mistake though)

Well since this us about the pink lemonade I guess I should post a picture of the only serviving frag from Hugos colony. It only made it becuase it was in his frag tank and was one of the few pieces that I took in to bring back. As of right now its still some what stressed out and does not have the same pollyp extension on the parent colony but it seem to be recovering well. This was an almost dead frag but has since gotten beter.
reefer on a budget

if anyone can go back in the day pull a pic of robz's. he got his frag from me several years ago and ive never seen anyone color theirs as crazy as rob. then again, everything in his tank was brilliantly colorful.

Yeah, I think that someone would actually have to literally contact Veron directly to find out about this coral. It would probably be worth it considering the amount of craziness that it is causing in the hobby! But A. horrida probably is going to be the closest we can get and considering how corals could probably mutate or have different polymorphisms like other animals, it could be vrey difficult to be absolutely sure.
I have noticed my littel frag, pictured on page one, has gone more green this past week. I was pretty amazed when I compared it to the pic I took a week and a half ago. I run zeo and, as such, supplement various parts of the zeo "stuff" I wonder if this coral is responding to certain supplements that I started adding in the past few weeks. For instance, I increased my iron supplementation three weeks ago. This would certainly lead to more green pigments in certain corals if iron was a little low in the tank, which I suspected was. I have some frags that stay very consistant colors, others definately respond to my supplements and the colors shift depending on the week. Now, I am not saying they change color completely, I just notice some corals are more susceptible to the tank params. I think this lemonade might be one that shifts colors in my tank more than others. The purple leading edge is definately geting stronger as well.
Mchava, my frag from tubbs via Hugo back in May looked identicle to that one, only more green, the day I took the first frag pic. It was definately stressed out that first day but recovered quickly. This seems like a relatively hardy little coral as far as acros go. Sad to think of that whole lemonade colony, as well as all of Hugo's great stuff, gone.

They look familar don't they, that is because that is where my frag came from. so I know where the linage is from?
That flourecent yellow nub with white polyps?????????
To me they do not look the same. Did your frag actually come from Hugo?
