"Purplish colors."Color is good, decently bright, not dull. Looks great in my 10 gallon fish tank. One tip of the pink one was broken during shipment, but it's not noticeable. I am very happy with it, and can't wait to put it in my tank! Overall, a good deal and realistic enough. The clown fish swim in and out of it and seem to like it. This was what I was looking for to add color to my aquarium.

"Looks amazing!"However, when they are put in water, they all rise up appropriately. The clown fish swim in and out of it and seem to like it. It is not blue, it is pink, yellow& white. My only complaint is that it's quite brittle. Received my package in great shape and in the promised 2 days! For some reason my clown fish LOVE this coral! I've them under an array of lights and they burst with ALL colors, well.

"Packaging was sufficient."I bought these for my Glofish aquarium and could not be more pleased! Enjoyed our sucker fish hanging out on it. They are weighted; a pleasant surprise. Think mayb should've shipped in a small box. These are better than most products you see for the glo fish tanks. Quite lovely to watch and really pops under black light. I have a 1 gallon aquascaped tank and they look very good with the live plants.

"Loved this piece."Otherwise it's very sturdy, it sits level and is really cute. Bigger and brighter than I expected. Wanted to change the interior of my aquarium. Shipped individually in bubble wrap and own box. This appears to be more of a plaster material than anything. It has nice, bright color and looks very real. I will keep there until I find a suitable replacement.

"My fish really like it."Nice but mine was more blue and very little purple to it. Not sure I love 5hat it's kinda hollow though. Love it all but to let you know not to pull off the tiny string on jellyfish. There weren't any instructions so don't take that off its not an extra piece. I'm interested in buying more of this brand! These are better than most products you see for the glo fish tanks. Looks great in my 10 gallon fish tank.

"- Well made."Looks totally real and it was a good size. They look awesome under light and the bundle was for a good price. I glued them on to other decorations in my saltwater aquarium. Made a huge difference in my saltwater tank! One piece arrived broken and another had parts that crumbled off. I ordered another set for another larger piece that I am still working on. Some of the colors are a bit bright but I like most of them.
