So I see lot's of coral pics, especially by sps keepers, of their corals glowing like crazy. Mine do this too, but only if I drown the tank in blue. I see all your pictures and everything is nice and white but the corals glow to the point I think aliens are watching them from the andromeda galaxy! How?

What light's do you use, what levels?

I want my corals to glow like the sun!
 
I know exactly what you're talking about, my tank is lit by LED's and I love them, but I went to a buddys house and his was lit by LED's and two t5 actinic bulbs, man those sticks had some POP! The actinics sure can make a difference! We both use the same LED's the only difference is the t5 bulbs.
