Please if you have other lights dont comment. Its not a LED bashing thread. Keep the wise comments to yourselves. Ok with that said we all know wild acros have a tendency to not do well in some peoples tanks. With LEDs it gets a little tougher especially with the lighter pinks. Does anyone have pics of wild pinks under LEDs. If so how high do you keep the coral. Now I would like to know how high your lights are from the top of the water and how low from the top of water to your rocks. Also what LEDs are you running. My pinks seem to do better when they are mid tank and after a month of acclimating.

not really a problem here. Also these are sitting 1-2" below the waters surface Lights hanging 12" above the water line.

Gab Glued them to the overflow box.


If anything the really really lighter ones turn a deep pink.
