got a small frag from Aquarium concepts.. really small frag took awhile for it to get comfortable in my tank now they climbing up the glass. I kindah like it that way it's easier to scrape and glue on a disk.

Your right i have them on some rock that i may have to break later on, they look nice when they cover certain undesirable areas but with caution.

I thought those buggers looked familiar, I can attest they grow like weeds, just watching the foot how it stretches out man they don't make a mat as much as they stretch from point to point then grow to fill in the gaps. I noticed have quite a bit of green to them as well, made me think "Pink Lemonade Zoa" :D

Although the frags I did cut from the bottom of the rock are lacking green, perhaps it grows in later.

Mike depending on lighting scheme, they can get that greenish hue to em.

Seems to be a permanent change of color though due to the lights and not some artifact of fluorescence as ones I cut from under the rock (and yeah they grow more weedier than those ugly brown palythoas) don't have the green even when right under the same blue light.
