lights were 1 atinic and 1 white. it was completely blue from base to tip. ive never seen it before and i didnt even know hammers come completely blue. i dont have a picture but ive seen it in person and im sure ima buy it but i just hope its not like a temporary color or anything. looks healthy the ways the tentacles stick out and flow around in the flow.

I have never seen or heard of that. I wonder if it could be dyed. I have heard of all purple but that was under actinics. I would be leary of paying alot of money for that. I have seen the mango colored one

I used to have one, unfortunately it got stung by an acan.



Pic doesn't really show the color well, but oh well.

possibly dyed. all the aussie hammers, torches and frogspawns tend to be orange.
