RR Jawdropper Acro

I think time will tell. I'm with everyone here in having my own opinions, but also feel we are seeing the real deal.

Just as a reference polyps always have the potential to change color as they mature. A prime example is my signature rainbow acro. Anyone that has it in good conditions can tell you that polyps start as green/yellow. As that portion of the acro matures, the tissue color and polyp color changes. The end result with mature polyps in my rainbow acros is hot red polyps. BUT, like many other acros, if not in prime conditions all of those colors are subject to change

SO TRUE!!! I think there are quite a few corals that need to get to mini colony size before there true colors really show off. Some for better, some for worse. Mostly I find they get better and better with age and size in my reef. I haven't found the sweet spot for my Joe"s Rainbow Acro or My RR Avenger yet. Both need to color up and develop those awesome red polyps!!!

Time will certainly tell on the RR JawDropper. I surmise that some folks will get awesome color out of it and some wont, just like a lot of frags and colonies we all share amongst ourselves. There are those stellar tanks out there that have such SICK colors while someone else with many of the same corals wont get the color pop.

Hehehehe, Well Zack, I think I fall in the middle ground when it comes to SICK colors on my acros....I can do way better!!!

The price is def up there. Very nice piece! Rare pigmentation combo. I hope it aquacultures well and maybe one day we all can have a frag to grow out. Good luck on those that have it.

I was quoted $1500 for a 1/2"

My luck I would buy a frag and it would turn all green under my LEDs. :hammer:

Very nice acro but I only have leds, I doubt it will maintain its colors in my tank.

My sticks have great color under LEDs.

I didn't hesitate to keep Jawdropper under them.

Oh, and I'm keeping Jawdropper under them.

That's great news! I've seen other awesome SPS tanks under LEDs. What kind of LEDs are you running?

You must not have read the forums. You can't grow or color Acros under LEDs. All your sps are going to die. :xd:
