 Depends on the nutrient level. Mine is rarely red because I'm really 
careful about keeping N levels up in the low light tank. OTOH, the rotala in 
my higher light, CO2 injected tank is a touch pink, but only a touch, also 
due to nutrient levels. I am too lazy to do what's necessary to have vivid 
reds.
