Pink Ric

[Kigs!]

Does such a thing exist? Anyone have pics? I think I picked one up recently, but just checking if it's just my lighting or if it's a legit color in rics.

? what type? Yuma or Florida......I have a Florida Ric that is pink not like fluorescent pink but barbie pink and we have seen Yumas that are the fluorescent pink.....I have not seen or heard of a Florida ricordea that is Fluorescent pink...

I have a pink ric. Much pinker than the picture.

That looks really orange to me leshampton. No offense.
I had a REALLY nice pink yuma but it got cut up by my power head and got shredded. Now there is a tiny little BRIGHT neon green yuma from the remains of the big one.

like this? or this?

The problem with most on-line sites is they call a slightly faded orange ric under some actinic lighting pink when in reality it is orange......

Here is a pink one that is true rose pink under all light conditions....

Here is a barbie pink Florida ricordea that is this pink under all light conditions as well, I have only seen 5-6 polyps of these outside my own.....

I have a few other polyps that have pink in them but they are not as pink as these....

I bought a pink ricordia from a reputable online dealer and it just faded almost clear and then died. Beautiful pictures azrel.

Very nice pics guys. James, I meant Florida Ric. Here's a quick pic I took of it, dead center. Not as nice as James' pink ric, but I like it nevertheless. It split the night after I mounted it.

One way you can tell for sure is to take a picture in the dark with flash and if it still has that same coloration then it might very well be true coloration......I would wait for a few weeks and see what happens under your lighting as well since I am sure your lighting is better and once it get's stable under your lighting you will see the final outcome.....I have had some ricordea morph a bit in color under better lighting. The bright pink one wasn't as bright a pink when I first got it, now it is much pinker then it was. It took about a month for it to really color up, I say that is a very sweet ricordea none the less......


Thank you chisstie.....

Once I get a few more I can get you one Jesse I have 3 right now.....Not sure if your into rics or not.....

I agree with James. Here are a few pics of mine in dif spots in my tank, had them about 9 months now

I have one just like that Chelsey......I got it from the Rev and he said he got it from you.....Mine has turned a little darker pink though...

 

[reef-lover]

I only have a pink Yuma...

 

[Kigs!]

Wow, that's a nice yuma. What kind of lights is it under?

 

[fly guy]

I think pinks may exist somewhere.......

If you REALLY want pink.......its gotta be a yuma though

 

[Azurel]

Most of those(except yumas) look like orange or orange cream colors to me, although lighting can play a serious role in the colors to the eye as well as the camera too....But personally I wouldn't call them pink more of a shade of light orange....No offense ment Flyguy.....

 

[Kigs!]

Wow Bill, that yuma gets sweeter and sweeter each time.
