I just wanted to show off these new ones I picked up today. I thought they were pretty cool. They were in a guys prop tank and under 400w 10000k MH lighting. I thought they might be a bit bleached but not really sure. I hope they color up under my 250w 20000k lights, who knows. Nice pink and aqua blue colors though. What do ya'll think.

The bleaching a probably due to light shock. It will continue to bleach out if you keep it under direct light. Try moving it lower, in a shaded area and it should color up. It looks healthy, just bleached (due to excess light).

Yup they seem to have colored up a bit in the course of the month. Now they are a nice deep pink and purple. here is a current picture but it really doesnt do them justice. The pink is really bright pink.
