Here's an underwater shot of ours. Color is much more accurate than the first picture we posted that had too much glare.

Very nice. Mine is only about 2 weeks old. Its just started to encrust which is a good sign I suppose.

Here's an underwater shot of ours. Color is much more accurate than the first picture we posted that had too much glare.
Thats a very nice closeup photo, shows off the coral really well. Does the green body flouresce under actinics? Mine used...but has browned out a little and doesnt flouresce as much now.

PS, keep the colony shots coming! :)

@Sahin, yes, ours does flouresce a lot. It doesn't show in the underwater photo so much because we just had our 400w 14,000K Ushio's on - no actinics or leds, not to mention, I was partially blocking the MH light while snapping the photo. Hopefully, we can continue to keep it happy.
