and for some reason(happened before the new light), my bali tricolor start to change color.. the body used to be kinda green, now it's white, I like it but it's different than others..

Cheng, did you get that Bali Tricolor as a frag from me last year when I broke down the 75? if so, I saw it do that to me too.

good looking shots too.
 
Cheng, no clue.. I got it from Gflatt years ago before he moved to alabama. if I remember correctly, it was a darker cream at the base, then to a very light cream to the purple/blue tips. never showed extreme poly extension. just about what you have.

here is an old photo I had from jan 2008

and after some growth. you can see the light cream on Oct2008

btw, when you frag it, I need to get a piece from you....

I am not sure if I'm giving it too much light, but from what I read, you need really strong light to make the purple cover the body too.
I can bring a frag to the meeting if you want it.
 
Cheng, I do but ill be in Texas. It will have to wait till may or June meeting.
And yes from what I know it loves the light. Your purple tips are longer than it was when I had it under vho only. I would like to see it in my halides.
