What are your experiences keeping yumas under LED?

the 1 I have in my 12g under 18 DIY 3w crees is doing good IMO. Been there about 2.5 months now.

I have some green tiped rics ,pink/orange rics all doing awesome 24" under my 120w led

have to slowly acclimate the mushroom to the light or it will melt.

When I first switched from T5 to LED all my rics, yumas, and shrooms didn't like the light. I cranked the intensity WAY down (10%) and slowly ramped it up to 90% over a 12ish week period and everything worked out GREAT! Talk about colors POPING on some of the coral under the LED! The oranges, greens and red pop just like (but better) than they did under my T5 with a Fiji Purple in the mix.
