For those who are not chemists, true neon signs are only red. Hence the reason it makes red pop.

Any other color sign is not neon (or not just neon):

You could mix neon with the CO2 bottles for your calcium reactors just need to find a speciality gas supplier to mix it. I think 500 a bottle should work.

Ha! What really pulled me in at first is that I feel like I really do have an issue with red coloring in my corals!

So while we're at it, what do you think that is all about?

If you hadn’t put “April Fool” how many people would be at AirGas buying a bottle of neon right now?

I've been dosing uranium and plutonium lately. I know a guy. Heard it would make things POP under the UV's. The corals don't seem to appreciate it much, but the new head that's growing on the foxface is really diggin it!

I don't know about neon but I would remind everyone to make sure to keep fresh batteries in your fish so they look their best.

Agreed, neon adds a distinctive red glow while radium makes them glow yellow-green in the dark.

... unfortunately we include neither noble gases nor radioactive elements in our salt mixes.
