I cant seem to get mine to color up. Is this a difficult digi to care for?

i find that this particular digi requires moderate lighting to bring out its full potential..mine is under 400wt Radium bulb...(no supplementation)..

Is it usually a nutrient issue? I wouldn't mind seeing so
E pics from those who have had good luck with it. I have mine under a single 250mh with 20k ushio off to the side now. It started to color up when I got it before. Then I moved it to the rock work and it lost what little coloring it had.

I just got mine about three weeks ago I have it half way up under a 250w 20K helios and 2 x 54w actinic +. The polyps are bright red/orange but the body only has some blue spots mostsly where new growth is or was havnt seen much growth yet. The rest of the body is drab though.

Very difficult to get the colors on this coral. Mine looks more brown than red and blue. All my other sps are brightly colored.

When I got mine it was totally browned out. No blue base at all, now the blue skin is significant, but the polyps are brown.
Some pics would be great...I will try to get one soon.
