Yellow acros?

[Oscaror]

Do yellow acros exist? The ones I see labeled as yellow turn out to be lime green (yellow tort, pink lemonade) Post pictures if you have any!

 

[bustayanky]

yeah they do exist. like Reef Raft USA has some super bright yellow Pink Floyd, wolverine, and sabertooth. Age of Aquariums has a nice Triton acro. Im sure there are some others. I also use to have a nice Diabolic Pacman Acro that I got locally from a fellow reefer.

 

[Oscaror]

Well those are some nice pieces! Can I have some diabolic pacman acro?

You must run all LED's if your pink lemonade is green.

I been in this hobby long enough, worked for distributor, own a shop, diver. All the acros. that u folks seeing for sale ain't yellow but green all sorts of green shade . The only true yellow SPS is the Porites Lichen under water, exposed reef, or no water under bright sun. This thing is sick ,yellow tang color.

Reef Raft Pink Floyd is the only true yellow that I've come across, pink lemonade is close.

My pink lemonade is pretty yellow.

 

[Oscaror]

So how do you get a pink lemonade to be yellow and not green?
I plan on buying one, yellow or not.

Is that a light?

lol, yeah, 250W metal halide lights.

Do corals glow under them?
Will it stay yellow with radiums and radions?

Golden Basket on eBay has some really nice yellow acros on occasion. I have yellow topaz acro that I got at RMF, but it originated from golden basket. Glows Yellow, fantastic peice.

Its not just the lights, lots of other stuff go into keeping the colors bright, but radiums certainly do help...I have no experience with radions, so cant say.
