The purple Acropora Valida ....

I got this as a small frag ~2 cm height. It looked more like it belonged in a bin than a frag.
Now it's my pride and an eyecatcher in my tank

 

[glennf]

this acropora has shown various color variation depending on choosen po4 level and lighting setup

I think it's 14 lights, based off of this:

but, yeah, if you had full tank length bulbs, 7 would match it I think.

The T5 bulb change was long due (normal 6-7months), these were 10 months old at the latest swap.
