I decided I wanted to try my hand at rock flowers so I picked up one today at our LFS. I picked it because it was fairly inexpensive and had an unusual dark color, almost black with a green ring. It attached within 30 minutes of being in my 125 gallon display tank, but within 4 hours the color has changed pretty drastically to green instead of nearly black. I still think it's pretty, but wasn't expecting such a drastic color change. Is this due to just a difference in lighting?
125 gallon, 6 month old tank
Using 3 Viparspectra 165w LEDs set at 40% blue and 10% whites
Parameters are
Salinity 1.024
KH 8.4
Phosphate 0ppm
Nitrate 5ppm
Calcium 400
Magnesium 1400
First picture is from when I first introduced it around 3pm and the second is from about an hour ago (7pm).
