That's impressive ! That guy is still on the Ora plug? Everyone says that these guys want a big base befor they grow so much for that theory. Mine on the other hand keeps spreading on the rock and isn't tabling all that much yet. Nice peice.

Those RP with the green dont have very many growth tips....probably from being in low light (which also brings out the green). They probably grow really slow like this though as a down side.

Mine is green with pink tips under moderate lighting but it looks like a hairball so I can hardly see the green on mine. Ive seen one with bright orange tips under xm10k lighting which is pretty cool.

Thanks....mine is mostly red/purple

I like the green base, looks better than solid red to me

My colony look all red with the MH light on. It's not until just the actinic lights are on do you see the green color at its base.

Yea..its still on the ORA plug, mine has encrusted into probably a 3"x3" area and am still waiting for it to branch out more.

Mines still on the ORA plug too. LOL What you can't see in the photo is it encrusting on the rock right behind that little brown frag.

I was woundering how it supported all that weight. Pretty cool.

Mine is too high in the tank, receiving too much light, so it's lost most of it's green, except near the base. I'm in the process of slowly moving it to a lower level, and it's slowly regaining some of it's green, though none of the pics show it. I think I need to move it down, even more, in the near future. Up to now, it's been a very fast grower, recovering very quickly and putting on new growth, quickly, when fragged. This pics will show the new growth, as almost white.
