Sweet pics guys. I've got both the salmon ones and the pinks that Snappy has. My salmon ones are just starting to get back to the nice bright color they were when I got them, not quite at the pic you posted Snappy, what K lighting do you have them under?

The pinks are quite prolific once they get going. I didn't think I'd have much success just cramming them on the rocks but they seem to be taking off just in this last little while. I guess I must be doing something right

I have 3 x 175 watt 10 k. Actinics were not on at the time of the photo. However, since I moved them a little further away from the frog spawn they are now more pink and less purple.

I have a big "bunch" of the red/salmon ones that I keep fairly high in the tank but off to the side under 400W MH and they are growing quite well. I also have the pink ones that are not doing so hot (light pink) I have moved them as they were getting quite shaded by my monti cap so hopefully they will pick up and grow.
I love the red ones. I bought them from Sleeman when I bought some of his other corals.
