Armageddon help

[EvilInSin]

anyone who has some Armageddon or similar color morph, can you tell me if it is happiest in high light or low light? I had 2 polyps and one is long gone now. The other looks like its shrinking, I really dont want to lose it. Any help would be appreciated.
TIA

Based on my observations, both armagedon 1 and armagedon 2 do not like a lot of light (I have a 30g tank with 4x39W T5 lights). My frags are placed on sand bed and they grow quite nicely. HTH

Ok so here a a tank shot showing where the geddon is. The tank is a 24g NC dx 2006 no mods. The lights are 2 x 26 50/50's.
I consider that spot to be med lighting. Look like a good spot?

I have Armageddons at the bottom of my 72 bowfront under 2x250w MH.

They had been doing fine, but I almost lost them recently after I started running carbon 24/7. Some of my zoas faded, and others closed up and shrank, as well as lost a lot of length on their skirts.

The various purple centered zoas faded the most. Some green skirted zoas faded to yellow green in the skirts. Other greens weren't affected.

Lost 2/3 of my Armageddons... the ones that made it had shrunken polyps and skirts. One type of pinks only got shorter skirts.

Everything is coming back though, now that I've yanked the carbon. I had massive chaeto in my fuge, and even that went down to 2 small clumps after running carbon 24/7 for a few weeks.

Thank you so much! I started running carbon right before I had the problems with my zoos!
I cant believe I didnt think if it!

Hope that was it. Post back if things get better!
