As you may have seen on the forum under the tank build sub section I am doing a full on GHL build, but thought I would add some fun

The GHL Mitras LED coral test!

Photo uploaded is of a very sorry for itself looking chunk of what used to be green with purple edges plating Montipora. This is what is left from my huge colony. As you can see its not very colourful, yes it has some purple showing through just about, and yes the water is slightly cloudy thanks to Prodibio kicking up a nice bio bloom while the tank matures. But I think we all can agree my camera work does not get good enough for photoshop.

So lets wait a few weeks and see what colour this goes under GHL Mitras LED:) Place your bets please :)

Thats some difference within a matter of days! (Are you taking the photo at the same time every day?, just curious)

yes, but it would make little impact on the results as the colour being produced from the coral not the lamp, the lamp is just working to change the coral pigment.
