What do you think of the red-green-blue compared to all the lights on at once? The camera might not be capturing the scenes well enough to convey the true colours that are appearing in your tank, so your observations are what I'm looking for.

Maybe if you took more photos with the rest of the room's lights out later in the evening, reflections wouldn't be a problem.

Also, can you dim certain colours?

Thanks again
In person, the colors don't appear washed out when all are on, but rather, very bright. Each line seems to bring out different colors in the corals.
I can dim the blue line and the white lines, but the red-green-blue line can't be dimmed. I honestly wasn't expecting very much light so didn't think to go with a dimming driver but it is shockingly bright. I have all driver's on full right now, and probably will keep them that way as I love the mixture, even after playing with dimming each line.
