I always wonder when you see the lists from the supplier. I mean you can pick out ultra acans and those rare master scolys (and other rare colour morphs), but at what point does a warpaint or bleeding apple become an ultra grade?

I was thinking the same thing as you...the more symmetry of the pattern the better the grade.

nice photo by the way, it looks awesome.

Its subjecting based on that supplier, but they are all pretty similar in grading honestly.

Green would be 1 price, green with a few strikes of orange may be a reg grade, and the one pictured would be an ultra.
Its the in between parts that get a bit hazy and are subjective to the diver.

Nice! Was it shot under actinic?

Thanks. These pics were shot about an hour ago. My Display is running on LEDs only. The LEDs are on timers and when the pictures were taken; the blues, whites, reds, and UVs should have been ramped up to 100%.
