Ugh, ppl say I have a eye for it but I don't believe them........... I just like it! ;)

The Pikachu will turn a bit darker on the skin which you already can see happening but the tips will stay nice yellow.
 
To the naked eye under full lighting the color is actually between the two pictures -- less green and more yellow. You can see the rock has a greener hue in the second pic. Not sure if that is due to the camera settings, the post processing (Lightroom) or the lights. The coral has lightened though and growth edge on the base is an electric green while the tips are light yellow. Its getting about 300-350 par from T-5s with BML actinic led supplementation. I'll post another picture in a month or so.
 
Here's my colony.
It's more yellow than the picture makes it.
I bought the whole colony for $20 from somebody that didn't know what they had. ;)

Here's my pikachu from TCK , photo taken a couple of days ago. Color is bright yellow and greenish yellow at base. The minicolony started as a frag on 9/10/15 and now is completely encrusted over the base.
