What’s the overal color temp of this tank? Looks to be in the 20k range. I’ve been debating giving my tank a month of mostly blue light to see what happens. Once the whites come on, my tank looks so brown, and washed out.

T5, all blue pluses bulbs. Some 8, some 6

Not often you see a true yellow acropora.

Beautiful piece.

The contrast and the brightness on the polyps are just incredible

It goes to show you that the same Acro can be place in different lighting, Systems. And can look a bit different. I got both (WD) from different reefers.

Now they are both in the same system, same height.

Great work as always Tristan! You're running 100% B+ nothing else to supplement the lighting? Either way you're getting great results.
