PC Rainbow Color

I actually think the PC Rainbow is one of the easiest to keep. Problem is most people put the PC Rainbow under too much light. Keep it lower and it will color up beautifully.

What’s too much? 200PAR? I don’t have a par meter, but a chart from the hydra26hd shows I’m in the 200-300PAR range.
 
This is mine after a month in my tank. Started out solid red and has slowly changed to this.

Boom is right. in fact, after much trial and error, one frag of mine is coloring up nicely in the 150 range.
