But seriously, yeah, I think the days of expensive roses are over. Especially since they split like kids at a bush party when the cops arrive (man I suck at thinking up analogies).
thats not the best analogy but :mrgreen: i thought it was funny!!!!! How about they split like amoebas on steroids? :biggrin:

The picture was actually taken under 130W of PC lighting. The light the anemone is under now is rated at 10K, but measures out at 14K.

You have a K rating gadget? Is it submersible? Or, more basically, by what method do you measure K value of a particular light with the gadget? Geez, boB, I'm full of questions today :biggrin:

No to all. The K value is given by the manufacturer. The seller told us the bulb actually measures at 14K. I can only measure Lux. :biggrin:

It was just my luck to pick up a rose before the price went waaaaaaay down, I payed $100ish bucks for it! oh well, atleast its healthy..... And that was about 8 months or so ago.

boB,

Thanks for your answers to all my questions :biggrin: Now it's time to question someone else....

spikehs,

How big is your RBTA after 8 months?

spikehs 11-16-2004 02:28 AM
hmmm, i'd say its about 5inches or so from around 3ish... It had almost finished splitting into 2 (I am positive it was splitting), but now it seems to have gone back together, which is wierd.
