the lighting effects corals colour, I'm not to sure on disease but I imagine it could aswell. and I recommend doing something about the macro algae in the back and moving it to the sump or something

I tried putting blue actinic on it and they really dont have any color, except for the orange and green ricordea, its supposed to be 2 green ricordea but for some reason the seller gave me alot of stea blue ones

I think it looks great. If you want the color to pop more this light will be your new best friend.
