Hey All, So i have some Zoa that multiplying since ive bought them. Exosphere, Thermosphere, utter chaos, SBB Marvin Martians. Thats just a few but anyway I have always done a LPS style reef for lighting and flow. I am noticing that my new babies dont have the same pop as the originals. I have a frag tank that I plan on moving these to for grow out but I was wondering if you can tell me or point me in the right direction for par and or spectrum for best polyp size and color? Thanks everyone.
 
For me it’s typically higher light = brighter/smaller polyps and lower light = not as bright/bigger polyps. Some of it varies by species, but I define higher light as 150 par and lower light about 60 par.
