Glowing Coraline?

[legionofdoon]

Does anyone know if there is a pink Coraline that glows under blue light? I've got random spots appearing on one of my rocks that are a neon pink when the lights first come on and can't tell if it has polyps it looks like it does but my eyes are old now(as in possibly a resurrected sps) or could it be a different type of Coraline.

Look at it under white light to be sure. Blue light causes too many substances to fluoresce.

Bright pink in my experience is normally dead coraline from either air exposure or from sps growing. A picture may help to see what you’re working with.

I'll try in the morning, it's in a weird spot and I can't seem to get a clear picture of it. It definitely hasn't been anywhere near out of water.

It's still bright pink under white light, it just glows under blue

I second this. Whenever I clean my power heads the few spots of coralline that I miss glow and fluoresce when I put the power heads back in the water. I must say that It does look good in the tank for the short time it last.
