Yes, very nice! What type of lighting are you running?

I just had to downgrade my SPS tank and I have a small ric tank setup now with a 250w MH Hamilton 14K and I'm thinking of changing to a XM 20K.

Well I think I am done with Florida rics for now, I just got another 10 polyps today couple colors I didn't have and a few on variations I did. I am going to have to redo my tank I think be for I can add any more. I might just look for some propagated yumas of the rarer type now......I have been really looking at some SPS as well.....But will have to upgrade first to a bigger tank..I will have some pics coming of the new ones....

Ricorodia's are like small time drugs once you start getting them the colors will get you hooked on the bad stuff (SPS).

nice. so how much do these usually run for?

IT depends really some of them I got in trade some I paid $10, some $45 a piece. It really all depends on color and rarity......The pinks I have are far more rare then any of the other color combos of Florida ricordea I have. Those most likely you would pay top dollar for $45 a polyp. You are less likely to see a true pink Florida ricordea like the one I have then any other color in Florida. I think it would be safe to say that they are probably far more rare then even Hot pink Yumas.....

It's been a while since I updated this thread with some new additions......I lost about 10-12 rics due to a protozoan that eats ricordea. But most of the rarer ones survived.....

New rock of pinks 10 polyps( from Marcel) these are hot,hot,hot.......
