its funny you say that about the cyphastrea because i got it from Reeffreak and it was all pink in his tank.. no green.. he busted a peice off and its been green since it went in my tank.. weird eh. must be the leds because hes a T5 only guy.  the plana is a nice one, jroovers got a similar or identical one from Aaron too. really colored up from on top, looks purple from the side.

I got mine from Ben a month or so ago.  No green on it yet, and other corals have a habit of turning green under my leds.

thanks for the compiments man, my tank isnt all that crazy but us Sarnians have to stick together, seems theres only a few of us left.. just stick around here and your tank will look amazing in no time, there really isnt much to it and this forum helped me get to where i am now.

Finished reading through the whole thread.  I know your tank from RC, but still, it was nice going through the thread because your tank is one of my favourite on the net.  ;D

Hey Duke,
what lights are you using? saw that you added 2 T5 bulbs to your LEDS. what LED lights are you using, how many of each diode?  I like the colours in your tank.

90 bridgelux 3w 80 degree optics 60 rb : 30 cw also there are 2 t5 bulbs, one blue plus and one purple plus that run for 3 hours at peak daytime. overall they do add a nice look to the tank but i dont want to up the intensity much more than that for now.
