Let's see your orange passion! - Page 2

Nice, Hung!
Don't you have a larger colonie as well?

tank master · 11/16/2015, 09:45 PM

I do.
This frag was is my experiment under t5 and to see how it would do.
It seems to be better than the one under leds.

vmacisback · 11/16/2015, 09:47 PM

Here's mine. How do you upload pics directly onto the thread without making them an attachment?

reefmutt · 11/16/2015, 10:13 PM

That's looking pretty good.
Copy the photo link from whichever photo sharing site you use and past it in your reply..
I wanna see that on the big screen..

reefmutt · 11/18/2015, 11:47 AM

No more passion pics??
Gotta be more orange passion out there..

Very nice. Is that growing on the wall of the tank?
Looks like it's growing well

thanhreef · 11/19/2015, 06:52 PM

Here is my RR OP. I have had it just over 1 year. The polyps look more yellow than orange. It is about 25" from Radion. It's about time to move up a bit in order to get the orange polyps

Not the best picture, taken off my iPhone but heres my OP frag

basser1 · 11/19/2015, 11:42 PM

Is there a source or anyone willing to sell a frag at a "reasonable" (less than $200 bucks)?

+1 to this.

I assume these are very slow growing and as such are very limited in quantity. Hopefully if they are well kept for their available will increase and prices will become reasonable. I would never spend $200 on a frag.

The polyps look more yellow to me when fully out, but I think it depends on whose looking at the coral..........some people see them as more orange than yellow. My friend that visited yesterday commented on the "orange" polyps.

Either way, it's a nice piece.......the blue and green skin are nice and vibrant also.

My frag is going on 2 months it's low getting maybe 250 par.

Ed that picture doesn't do it justice in your tank!

Nice Dan, how long have you had it? Where did you get yours?

Hi Reefmutt,

You have seen mine. I run a ULNS with T5 dominate tank. I think its grow also highly relate to enough currents and turbulence.
My Ca = 430 ~ 480 ppm, Mg = 1350 ~1450 ppm, KH = 7.5dKH steady

Blueline12 · 11/21/2015, 09:00 PM

They are not slow growing. Once it gets going it takes off. Less than $200?? That's crazy. You have to stop shopping at these over priced vendors. I sell mine to local reefers for $80-$100.

No, I don't have any available.

Thanks. It is growing on the overflow.

Very nice Shih, great polyp extension and thanks for the details. I also have mine in a lot of flow.. It has been growing quite quickly..

I think that if you were selling frags with the super orange polyps, you could ask more..
I have yet to see a large colony with the super orange polyps... I find it odd..

Well.... Besides EuroGTI, of course!

basser1 · 11/22/2015, 12:10 PM

Does the orange color disappear?

reefmutt · 11/22/2015, 01:11 PM

Mine had nice orange polyps when I got it..
So I'd say generally, yes it does.
Obviously there are some notable exceptions.
The question is whether the orange will come back..

swk · 11/27/2015, 06:46 PM

Mine is a VERY fast grower, like all tenius are, for me anyways...tenius are like weeds ime.
