Snappy's Rainbow Stylo

Nice.....I have the same coral (not from greg though) and have found the same thing. Which way do you like it better? I like it in high light....although all my prime real estate spots are spoken for.

Steve, red/pink with silver polyps sounds AWESOME!

Haha, that's funny...I like it in lower light, but all the lower light prime real estate is gone! I have very few SPS corals that are happy right under my halides. Annoys me. It's like, "Hello Acros, this light's for you!!!" Grrr...

In high light the rainbow stylo doesn't look rainbow at all. Many people ask, "That is a rainbow?" Kind of offensive! I find it is just yellow with pink tips and brownish polyps with white polyp tips in high light. I almost sold the colony because I was so sick of it being so bland. Now I like it.

I have mine in fairly high light but it is quite brown.

Color schmolor..... You all should just be happy that they are doing well for ya.... Stylos were always one SPS that has never done well in my system, for whatever reason

I had the same issue for years until I got this piece. It's been with me about 2 years, it's still pink and completed blocked from any significant light. I should try to cut it off the rock and get it under the rays!

Just be thankful there was only ONE that didn't do well.

I agree, I prefer brown or pure white SPS.
