Juiceman Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 (edited) Looks like maybe a tri color valida, but the pic is blurry Edited September 23, 2011 by Juiceman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don duncan Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 looks like pearlberry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Cob Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 yeah, Pearlberry and Tri-Color validas are hard to tell apart in my opinion unless they are in the same tank. Definitely looks like both. It's growing more like a pearlberry though if I compare it to my tri-color valida. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbnj Posted September 23, 2011 Author Share Posted September 23, 2011 Definitely not Tri-Colored Valida. Quite possibly Pearlberry, although I have another similar looking colony that I thought was my Pearlberry. More bad pics after playing around with the camera settings: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caferacermike Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 I agree not a valida. Valida grow straight up in super dense colonies. The pics are really hard to tell. If it were more blue I might toss tenius in the hat to choose from. A couple years ago Jeremy got his Pearlberry and had such good luck with it, that well, he saturated the area with frags. You may very well have gotten a frag from him and then a frag from someone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

offroadodge Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 looks like my pearlberry... same coloration and growth pattern. I didnt flood the area i think. John may have. I havent sold any of it in over a year. Still have the colony though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pbnj Posted October 10, 2011 Author Share Posted October 10, 2011 Finally figuring-out the zoom on my camera (only took a year). Pretty sure it's a Pearlberry at this point: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
