Say hello to my newest pinky

[Blazer88]

Here is one of my newest pinks that I've let grow out from a tiny spec of a baby to a good sized adult. They are out in bright MH and loving every second of it. Thought you guys might enjoy

It's gorgeous! I hope you get a lot more of them to grow.

QUIT TEASING ME!! :lmao: Seriously, great pictures and such awesome Yumas.

what are your tank params? I have honestly killed at least 50 yuma in my tank.... I gave up on them but seeing that picture and reading that you grew it up from nothing and it resides in bright MH really makes me wonder what i did wrong and also makes me think there is hope for the yumas.

Tank parameters? Good question...I haven't tested, or changed, my water in months now My pink Yuma's (and other colors) just seem to keep spreading no matter what I do. I guess I do the exact opposite of what most people recommend for these guys, I keep them in high light/flow and never directly feed them. Something must be working though since I keep getting baby ones. I think there is a ton of hope for Yuma's, I just avoid any wild-caught ones and stick to CB if at all possible.

Here is the newest pair:

Great pics, what kind of camera do you use?

 

[Blazer88]

Thanks for the comments guys. I used a Canon 30D and Sigma 150mm F/2.8 macro lens.

Do you have any progression shots of it? Like from baby to grown polyp. And how long does it take to grow from baby to that size?
