Which fish look best under UV?

[Chris Van Daele]

hello,

I just switched the lights in my tank to the new kessil a360x and the UV in these lights looks stunning. When the lights dim down at night to more of a blue/UV which fish are best for some colour pop?

I have also noticed taking pictures of my tank under this light is near impossible. Is there some sort of lens filter that is sold to take pictures of corals etc?

Thanks!

I’m finding the markings on my trigger are looking pretty cool.....I still need to fully set the light with the spectral controller though

Potter’s angelfish (centropyge potteri) look stunning under blues and uvs. I would imagine the fine details in Tomini and kole tanks would pop better in blues. If you like predators a snowflake eels yellow would look spectacular. In short fish with details look the best in blues.

Also still wondering how to take those amazing pictures I see on here of fish and corals, is this a special camera lens?

I would take a read through the sticky’s in the photography forum. It’s a combination of factors that one post can’t explain!

How big of a tank?

Hawaiian black triggers look amazing under actinic, but they are quite large.
