Having issues with reds and keeping millis colorful. All my chemistries are spot on. Im using 10 T5s ati 6 blue plus 3 coral plus and one purple plus they have just been replaced. Phos 0.02 and no detectable nitrates by salifert. Rose milli more of a cream color outstanding polyp extension just not great color. Ive tried zeovit b balance and have been using it for about 3 months with no noticable difference. Any thoughts or suggestions?
 
I'm no expert by any means, but I seem to get more pink and red with a 12,000K bulb in the mix. I'm currently running 3 blue+, 1 coral+, 1 purple+, 1 12,000K. I was able to pull this color out of this tenius in 1 month.

I also notice about a 200% increase in growth overall with having just 1 out of 6 being 12k.
