That doesn't sound like a Tyree Rainbow, but it definitely does sound cool.

Here it is:

Looks like Rainbow Stylo to me too, above it said rainbow colored polyps, but in the picture I see blue polyps like the Tyree Rainbow Stylo

If you blow on it with a turkey baster you can see full rainbow. poylps are blue and very thick to hide it like kien" picture

This could be the case with mine, it has so much PE all I can see is the blue polyps.

I think that rainbow is a stretch as far as a name goes, but there are plenty of cool multi colored ones out there. I have a pink/purple with blue polyp and a yellow/green with steel blue polyp stylos. they have a very cool growth pattern. Here are pics of mine....

Looking good everybody. This is a oldie but goodie. IMO a very underrated coral. I have been trying to get it for a long time.
I finally got one, and it is bleached out. Hopefully it comes back and looks like all of yours.
Keep the pics coming.

I got this from reefermadness about 5 or 6 years ago. They called it a "Taste the Rainbow Stylo" or something. It's hard to see in this picture, but it has blue polyps too.

I know this is an old thread but was hoping to get more info on placement to retain/encourage color. I have a gorgeous frag of this currently sitting low on the side of the tank on a rack getting acclimated to the lights.

My tank is 24" deep with 2 Kessil A360NEs placed 12" apart so there's overlap in the center of the 36" tank so light there is fairly intense compared to the outer edges. I have a rock wall so this could go anywhere from the bottom to the top. Lights are 8" above the waterline. Any suggestions? Thanks!
