I'll try get an updated pic tonight.
 
The coral in question is a Red Planet. When he first got it it was a pink Mille he thought. Red Planets look like a pink Millie when they have had too much light. Now that the coral in question had colored back up, you can obviously see that it is a red planet
 
I was in the WWC store last week. Their corals actually do look that good. But they are under heavy heavy actinic lighting. I talked to one of the owners and he said they value color more than growth, and run their tanks accordingly. Also they feed the coral 3x a day. They really do look great, but yes, lots of actinics going on.
 
Aqua80, that looks like TDF to me, did it come with a square plug?. Give it more actinic so the pink polyps get nicer.

it is a frag made by one of my LFS, so round ceramic plug...
it is under a PM 8x24w 5 blue+, 1 fiji purple, 1 aquablue special, and 1 kz coral light...
 
Thanks.
Aqua80, what is PM? Your coral looks nice, if you check the pics on mine from earlier post, they look just like yours. Those were under MH 250 watts. The last 2 pics were under LEDs (50% royal blue and 50% white) in use starting around Dec. 25th, you can see the improved coloration and beginning growth on some tips.

maybe it is because of poor white balance and blue plus tube above it, but the growth tips are more white than blue in my eyes...
