I'm about to purchase a Shawn Bennett yellow tort and I was wondering if it was possible to keep a yellow sps frag 'yellow' under a radium or Phoenix (14k). I'm just worried about it turning green on me. Obviously there is a sweet spot in the tank, it's just finding it... :)
 
You can keep it yellow, you just need to keep your phosphate down.

Very nice! Mine stayed a slimer green. Very pretty coral.
 
Saw Shawn Bennet mentioned and thought you all might appreciate this photo of his tank from way back in the day:

Pretty sure the Tort is the coral up above the Orange Shoulder Tang.
 
I got a yellow milli from a friend, we both have led, in his tank it is yellow and was up high. The frag I got from him I put two thirds down the tank and it turned lime green but much better PE.
