Also, which grower? Could you share a link maybe?

That’s much redder than any I’ve seen before. Very nice plant.
This the closest I have.

Five minutes of fame on the Forum and it decides to snuff it. Turned to mush ☹️

What a shame, sorry to hear that! Hope you managed to salvage a few bits to restart your plant.

The whole thing has gone unfortunately. I'm scratching my head as to what went wrong and can only assume it was weather related. There were a couple of sunny days after I last watered and I'm wondering if the plant (along with one of my other Pterocactus) was cooked.
