You can tell by the cube it sits on.

You can place this coral under any light and it will still be a nice blue. Ive noticed that with the 14K AC's, it brightens up even more compared to my 10K AB's. Moderate flow too.

Did you get anything else from upscales?

Yep that acrylic cute is neat, I also got a green cat paw and i made my own acrylic cube for it

i heard someone say "rasberry Milli"

By the way.....that's not an "Oregon Blue Tort." It's just an acro that's been painted blue, that looks like a tort and came shipped here from Oregon.

hahaha. I got the real one

How much different does it look from the raspberry prostrata Mandoman has?

So far so good for mine. The tort looks sweet under the 20000K HQI.

Mine's doing great as well. Now I just need to go get some epoxy to mount that little acrylic cube. Not easy to just wedge into the rocks. . .

 

[t0mmy108]

i took some cutting pliers and snipped it off. Just turn it to to side where the blade sits flush to the cube. I cut it off without touching any coral tissue. Or you can dremmel it out of the cube.

Whats wrong with the acrylic cube? It gives a GREAT base to superglue too and the coral should encrust right over it you will never see it again.
