I have one, which appears very healthy, is about 4-5" tall (about
double from when I bought it), growing moderately fast, with pear-shaped 
leaves slightly larger than a silver dollar.  Unfortunately, all of the
new leaves are bright green in color; the red ones dropped
off shortly after purchase.

My stats (just for reference):
3W/gal flourescent (Philips F40DX)
6.8 pH
7 ppm KH
GH ?
60ppm NO3 (out of control, as usual)
