I had this plant in an eclipse 6 with a modified hood for a few monthes. it grew great, but stayed a dark green. i thought it was regular combomba but when taken out it does look a kind of purplish. i guess my light was not high enough for true red growth. After a while, it got shaded by my asian ambulia and stunted and despite clearing of the competition, it just wasted away. Also, be careful while planting, its leaves fall of very easily.
