ARC Poinsettias Paly?

buddythelion · Sep 28, 2012

I've always like this morph, and the price is fairly affordable on ARC. But the funny thing is I hardly ever see them being offered in for sale threads or even mentioned/photos of them.

oh:

They're a beautiful morph for sure, anyone care to add into this discussion?

Here's the pics on ARC:

I have never seen these before but would DEF want a few polyps....where did you find them for sale?

A reef creation is what arc stands for so should be a easy find. Very nice stuff

Ask randy at arc. Love the store and I love randy, I'm a regular there and he always works hard ordering the fish I want and always has sweet pieces at sweet deals. Haven't seen the pointsettias in a while though so idk if he has em in stock anymore but I have seen them before and I just gotta say they are some sick coral

It's such a nice morph, and it's affordable. I'm just surprised to hardly find any hobbyist photos.

Buh buh bump.

I emailed them and they said thy lost the colony and are trying get some polyps back from local reefers! I don't know if they meant lost as in dies or lost as in sold either way they don't have it!

That might be part of why they aren't around as much. Thanks for letting us know!

But I'm sure some of us zp collectors have some pictures to share!

Man... seeing that picture makes me so sad. The Poinsettias that I've run across don't have the large green center and blood red like the photo shows they do.

They're still around Tee Hee

how difficult of a paly are they?...never been a zoa or paly kinda guy...but now I'm starting to get more into it and looking for easier but eye pleasing polyps..

I have those, but I'm not sure they're poinsettias because the green in the center isn't nearly as large as the ones in ARC's photos.

true these are a little rainbowish,i'll be trying these in differant light intensities to see what happens.I wonder what lights they were under in the original ARC's photo?

Nice! It's addicting for sure. Some easy but bright ones are Sunny Ds, Red Hornets, Devil Armor, and Armor of Gods.

Mmm, my best guess would be T5s since they're a store.
