yellows

Those centers do indeed look yellow to me. (the ones above)

I'm not posting here to be the color police. I'm just saying...if a thread is labeled "yellow" that people post pics of zoos that are clearly yellow, not yellow'ish, a fade of yellow that turns into green or orange, but yellow. If they are a different shade of yellow please say that yours are "greenish yellow" or "orangish yellow" instead of trying to pass them off as something they aren't.

I think a good point of reference, as to whether or not your zoo is yellow, is compare them to some yellow polyps, since as Jovreefer pointed out they are very common and everyone has them.

Camera, photoshoping, and monitor color problems should all be looked into if your yellow polyps look green or orange on your screen. Also, turn off your actinics or blue lights while taking a picture of a yellow (kinda like taking pics of brown zoos that appear to be blue under actinics), this might be leading to some color distortion.

I don't know about anyone else, but I look for exactly 570nm when looking for something yellow. :lol: j/k

I agree surfnvb, and on my first post i said mine had yellow centers, to which i was told i had faded eagle eyes by jovreefer, whose yellows look lime green to me. I honestly see the last post of mine on the first page of this thread as having yellow centers, close to 570, and know that i wasn't refering to you, the police display their badge.

HaHa twon does not like getting busted for false color naming....decon hemp even tells you in your LAST pic they are not yellow. You can keep pushing your fake colors all you want but people like you are the reason I've become a color police officer :p There orange...there nice...why try to turn them yellow?

Your pic of the orange skirts definatly have yellow centers though and I think they are nice ... looks like something that would come out of those color splatter art wheels. lol see...I'm not out to single you out if your giving them the right color :)
 
i have some "trending towards yellow bright green people eaters" I won't say what colors they are, because i can't really tell

and jovreefer, i don't like people who express their opinion as fact.
 
i remember you posting that picture a long time ago. I also remembering PM'ing you cuz I'm also in Virginia (Richmond and Blacksburg) and you never responded. ;)

you should show the before picture with that when you post them. i honestly am not sure if they are bleached or not, but you do have some strong 10k's so I wouldn't rule out the possibility.

also, how bout a recent picture of them? not one that is 8 months old.

if that is their true color I have to give that a big :thumbsup:
(maybe a white people eater :eek2: )
 
Hey twon, I think I've seen something like those called 'icy star people eaters', any chance yours were called that when you bought em? Alos, has the skirt always been that light in coloration? How long you had em?
 
So what do you think about yourself? you posted the same coral 3 times to get someone to say they were yellow because you knew for a "FACT" that they were yellow...yet no one did. My oppinion that they were orange was backed up by someone else's post... no one else has said they look yellow to them...so are you still stating for a "FACT" that they are yellow?

BTW... I still like you even though you dont like me or aparently crayola :lol: :inlove:
 
surfnvb, i remember the message, but they are very slow growers, and i don't have enough to frag, and am not sure i ever will. i posted the before and after in a thread in this forum today, but here it is again.

when that picture was taken they were under 15k at the bottom, so i don't think they were bleached. they did come under attack from the red mushroom, and i moved them. they did not like the move and they started to disappear, but they have started to grow back and are regaining most of their color. no photoshop, just and olympus camera and cropping. they didn't have a name when i bought them, just a rock with some zoas. i will take some more pics of them tonight, but of course they don't look as good under the 10k Ive had them about a year and a half, they took about 6 months to get the good color
and here is my last posting of my counterfiet yellow center zoos

I got a frag of true yellows from a fellow reefer in MI and they didn't do well in the first month but now starting to grow.. I have about 4 polyps right now.. I'll post some pics when I get the chance..

What about these? a variety of yellows I have but I will get pics of the true yellows with flash...

Wow, where in sterling heights are you? I am at m-59&mound
 
lol I agree. It's just a color. However, maybe I'm colorblind but I don't really see any yellow. Maybe my monitor is miscalibrated.

And to poke at the open wound (having harmless fun), to be classified as a people eater, it has to have a green mouth :).

That name should be just destroyed and leave the PPE to its rightful glory.
 
OMG, Reefjunkie, how do you always manage to find such rare and amazingly colored specimins? First those intolerable 'eye of doom staring straight to the very pit of your soul' orange buttons, & now the amazing yellow people eater. You must do your own collecting...
 
Wendy- Reefjunky is trying to pull a fast one on you there! thats no People eater!!! it has no green mouth...therefore has no taste for people :lolspin:
