aaron1987 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 I think you need to fix the color balance on the photo so we can see what it actually looks like Link to comment

Xavier613 Posted September 2, 2011 Author Share Posted September 2, 2011 i tried to fix it as much as i can, but all i have is my cell phone camera. which washes out all blue lol Sorry for offending you Link to comment
Xavier613 Posted September 2, 2011 Author Share Posted September 2, 2011 Lets see if this offends you less. didnt change a thing, just uploaded off my galaxy S. Sorry for the dirty glass But like i said. the BTA in person is the color of the first picture. Link to comment
Linilou Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 If you have a photo editor, for the first picture, try to take the white balance down, also try to adjust the green and red spectrums of the picture, it should make it closer to a nice normal blue. In the second one, if you take the blue slider and turn it down a bit it should eventually even out at a less saturated blue. Play with the contrast and brightness a bit too. That should help make the picture more normal looking. Cant wait to see it, from what Ive seen yellow BTAs are really rare. How much did you pay? Link to comment
Xavier613 Posted September 2, 2011 Author Share Posted September 2, 2011 I got a bunch of stuff that day but i think it was like 75 or 80 Link to comment
awpong Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 hard to tell from the pics, but if it's a true lemondrop bta, then you got an awesome deal on that. I'd love to have one, but I'm too scared that it'd sting all of my coral before it settles. Link to comment
Woogalie Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 I was so offended by that photo I threw up in my mouth. Im joking BRUH HAHAHAHA You have some really cool anemones. Are you an anemone connoisseur? Link to comment
Xavier613 Posted September 2, 2011 Author Share Posted September 2, 2011 lol i dont care what name it is or anything like that, i just liked it so i bought it. i dont know of any coral ive bought because of its "name". But yeah i Fvxkin love anemones haha, ill throw up a FTS. half of my 75 is anemones. Link to comment
Zer0 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Could be dyed.. But it also could be a lemondrop BTA. You'll just have to find out the hard way I guess, but yes, lemondrop BTA's are pretty hard to come by. Link to comment
Xavier613 Posted September 2, 2011 Author Share Posted September 2, 2011 I dont have a doubt that it is not dyed. I know the guy i got it from and hes a good guy. Link to comment
Zer0 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 I dont have a doubt that it is not dyed. I know the guy i got it from and hes a good guy. That's great that you know the guy you got it from, but who's to say he didn't originally get it from someone who dyed it. Or even the person that your buddy got it from, got it from another guy, which dyed it. I can go on forever if you'd like. Link to comment

Zer0 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 lol not a clue if you put it like that. ill see whats up in a few months Yeah, that's kind of what I was getting at. But seriously, I'm not trying to take away from your find, because if it looks healthy, and eats, and doesn't melt away or grow a hole through it's mouth in the next few months, maybe longer, then it very well could be a Lemondrop BTA, and you sir, scored big time.

Xavier613 Posted September 2, 2011 Author Share Posted September 2, 2011 Haha. I hope it does live. Dont really care if it turns green. purple, whatever. i dont wanna sell any of my 13 anemones lol Link to comment

MGDMIRAGE Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 That would be sweet if its an actual lemon drop, I'd love to have one. best part is none of them have moved since i placed them. *knock on wood* You are lucky, I lost my RBTA couple weeks ago to a pump My tank was full of Nem chowder.

Rabidgerbil38 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 If this thing turns out to be real, you are friggin lucky for getting it at that price. I've heard of them goin for 200+ on the regular. Looks great so far though, along with the rest of your nem colony. You are lucky, I lost my RBTA couple weeks ago to a pump My tank was full of Nem chowder. the same just happend to me with my vortech and only 2 days after my clowns started hosting it..
