All SPS acro milli turns green

[Paul154]

Yes I am running AB+ but I did some modifications to the template. Not every color are on 100%
I do not use red and green at all, and I do not have diffusers on my fixtures.

My intensity is at 85%

How long is your peak intensity?

Peak is from 12:00 to 3:30 pm
During this time of day, I do not go downstairs into my man cave to view the tank. Too white for my taste, no coloration.
I'll wait until 3:45 until the blues come back into play.

Think of the coral like you do with your sunbathing. The higher the color the more the coral is going to incorporate pigments in it's flesh to try and block out the bad and bring in the good. Without the intense light, it is going to go back to its base coloration that absorbs as much light as it can get.

So what colors make WD blue? Heavy blue spectrum and no reds and greens? Cuz it is trying to block out blues/ violet?

The answer / non answer is the fact that each coral is different and I cannot say definitively. Anecdotally, people have been getting fantastic coloration with heavy blues and higher par (as have I). Just be careful that you dont pump up your lighting power too fast or you will cook your sps.
