I forgot to mention that I had my halides turned up to 8 hrs per day for about 3 months, and dialed them back to 7 hrs per day a week ago. I don't know if it was the change in lighting or the addition of the MB7+BF, but there are some slight color increases that I noticed this morning.

I should also report that right now there are several SPS colonies that are quite pastel or mildly bleached. The two RBTAs are also somewhat bleached. These corals and anemones have been this way for at least 2 months, maybe 3. Kinda makes me think the increase in halide photoperiod was to blame because of the timing, not I'm not sure. The new coloring I am noticing is a couple of these colonies darkening up slightly (richer colors).
