I'd love to come by some time, with all the spare time im afforded currently, maybe i can. I know you could probably sell me a few little babies too.

Well finally I got some real color out of my TSA Fruity Pebbles. I got this as a 1" frag about two years ago in on a work trip to Charleston where I did a quick search on my way out of town and found Joe Knows Reefs tucked away in a office park parking lot. I hadn't hear of it before but it was like a tiny rainbow and I had to have it. Turned blah in my tank and I struggled with it for a few years, even as frags I sold locally colored up in others' tanks... Well it's gratifying to finally see it blossom in my tank. Growth has always been strong with this one too.

That's my ASD Rainbow Millie that REFUSES to show its polyps even 6 months after evicting the butterflies that were harassing it lol. It really does glow like that to the naked eye! Here's a better shot:

So what did you do to get the color?

 

[njreefkeeper]

I keep alk at about 8, pH 8.0 - 8.2, temp 77, Nitrate around 3-4, phosphate about .002 - .004, calcium about 420. I also add reef energy A and B and acropower every day, and feed frozen food generously twice a day. Lighting is a TON of T5/LEDs... There is definitely plenty of white light during the daytime hours, only blues is just in the morning and evening. Honestly I feel like a lot of my "higher end" pieces are a bit off. Like they are wanting to break through but they just aren't... Not too far off, mind you, but still off... Any advice would be appreciated!

I’d just give it time. Moving a larger established piece like that will usually cause some color issues. With everything else in your tank looking primo I don’t see why it wouldn’t eventually come around.

Here is mine, Picture credit goes to TSA! I have had it in my tank for almost 2 weeks now, looking great and cant wait to see it grow and color up!
