Pics of PC Rainbows under MH/T’5 ?

[skip0211]

I picked up a 2 inch frag of PC Rainbow yesterday... it been under a different type of lighting.. I have MH and T5s. Pics and suggestions on location? I placed it half way down on the reef, which is about 2 feet from my lights.. 400 watt Radiums. Don’t know what par is at that level.

Here is my PC under 250 radiums. Its pretty high in the tank upper third of my 180 and pretty directly under the bulb. There have been times in the past where my alk has crept up while dialing in carx or changing media...slightly, and id get a little tip burn when the tank was newer, and the pc was a good canary and be the first to suffer that.

Sorry off topic, but so true PC rainbow is first to suffer tip burn when it happens for me also.

Yes, you can see in this picture, it is from one of those times. It's a great canary for me for that reason. Very fast grower as well.

Here's a recent one of mine under t5's and led supplement, pulling some pretty nice colors

Here’s a couple mediocre shots of mine under T5/reef brite combo

If you run 400w, I would put it near the bottom if directly under the bulb or off to the side. I run hqi driven 250W and it goes mostly red up high and under the bed on. I also have a backup 22"-25" deep and off center and that is me gets much more of the orange/mustard/green hues.
