Btw to the OP - I’d suggest the kessil a360x lights. They’re really great, and they can be tuned to a whiter spectrum where the corals still pop but it’s not over the top blue, especially in the kitchen if you’re worried about light spilling outside the tank. Kessil has them programmed so you can’t really go wrong, just pick the color you like and the corals will grow fine regardless.
There are plenty of corals that look great under Kessils tuned to the whiter spectrum, all of them do honestly. But there’s no doubt that the crazy psychedelic color pop does take the actinic blue. A coral like a torch can look great under white during the day, but then in the evening when my lights become blue it’s almost like the color changes entirely. So comes down to your preference really.
