Ah yes, there it is - gorgeous! A fabulous result.
I think that is one of those tweaks that some images need - the RGB layer needs the saturation boosted pretty high to survive the weakening effect of Ha as luminosity or even Ha as red and blue layers.
You shot this with the perfect field of view for this object.
