Flricordia, you have inspired me to delve into ricordia's. Thanks. Here is my newest addition. It is really a nice shade of red/orange. I have placed it up high, but not sure exactly where it needs to be placed.
Anyone can help me on this one. Thanks all.

Yes Jess it was locally bought. I sure hope it doesn't melt, it is about the size of a lime, or silver dollar piece. It is extremely beautiful.....I only wish I had your camera to show the true colors!!! Wish me luck with it.

I hope it does well, it looks really healthy! Keep an eye on it with the lighting. What lighting do you have? My yumas always preferred a little lower lighting, and less flow.
Is it already mounted on something? make sure that baby doesnt blow away (happened to me toooo many times lol)

I have the aqualight pro.....150w halides (3) with actinics(4) 96w. (7 inches off of the tank) It is directly under one of the halides, probably 12 inches below it, maybe I should move it,? but at the store it was under a 500w halide. It came already attached to the clam shell.
Shrimpi, I miss your mandarin avatar....but your harlequins are beautiful, I posted in your section on these. Good luck with them, mine has been a real benefit in the tank.

my mandarin is still in my heart lol. Hes actually swimming about 2 feet from where Im sitting lol
hi there


If it was under 500 halides it should be fine where you have it. Just keep an eye on it, and if it gets cranky move it.
