Pictures of my new crazy orange/blue ricordeas

[efishnsea]

The first picture is from the front with a flash. The rest are shot with no flash from the top of the aquarium looking down. 10k 250 MH's and actinics on.
I have never seen such bright orange with a deep blue center :joy:
They came shipped with 2 ounces of water in a bag of air???? So they are a little stressed right now, just got them 1 hour ago. I didnt know they were going to be shipped that way, I mean I have heard about dry shippping but I would think a moist towel would have helped some to make the journey less stressful.
And a picture from the top of my Crocea's
Let me know what you think about that shipping method

..
Thanks

They will do fine in a bag, water with air in it shipped priority. They are very hardy and can stand 3-4 days in the mail no problem. I want to trade. bcool831@pldi.net

They probably could have used more water but, as long as there was plenty of air in the bag, it should not be an issue. I rather it be shipped in a bag with a little bit of water than a ziplock with newspaper! They look great for you just getting them! You have a beautiful tank, so jealous! What kind of camera did you end up getting? Hit me up w/ an email, I would love to work out a trade or a deal concerning some of your rics please Melly3218@ yahoo.com. Thanks for the pics!!

Very beautiful, do rics need different lighting compared to mushrooms?
Nice job.....
