I'm not sure what it is, and I can't seem to get a good picture of it, but I'm excited about this piece I got from @thenissantech!

Thanks again Alex!

That's a gorgeous piece! Cherry Shortcake?
I don't think so. Here's the Cherry Shortcake I got from Brandon/Fraghouse...

I really have no idea what it is. Alex didn't have a name either. Maybe he'll post a pic of its mother colony...

Are you still running your orphek fixture?
Yup.
Please don't tell me you've abandon yours man. LOL

Still pleased with mine, but, I have no experience with anything else.

I need to contact them and try to get them to help me get them sync'd together, and, perhaps to do something regarding my UV lens discoloration.

Oh no mine is running strong! It is now over our frag tank
I did replace 6 chips in mine to solve the burnt UV chips, what a chore to do!

Wow! Your shortcake looks amazing! Where do you have it positioned? Any idea on the PAR it is getting? Mine is just now starting to color up slowly but is a far cry from yours.
Somehow I missed this post Yash. Sorry dude.

It's as high as I can get it in my tank, tippy top. Not sure on PAR, buts it's getting all I've got. I've just permanently mounted it, last week, and wish I could flash forward and see it a year from now!

A couple other pieces I got from Brandon have yet to color up. I'm convinced, it really is random, piece to piece, tank to tank. One of the pieces we both bought from AM, frags from CoryC's tank, continues to encrusted and grow, but is almost white in color still. That was quite some time ago.

Looking forward to tacos man!

Thanks for info, Jeff! I got mine fairly high as well. Hopefully now that it is settling into the new tank it will start to color up.
