![]() My RP is bright and solid red under mine, I'd look at other factors, maybe placement of coral?

![]() high lighting + low nutrient = pastel color in corals. Some look good that way some look bad that way.
Feed your corals, they are probably anorexic for now. Give them zeovit amino acid, coral vitalizer and Fauna Marin coral food. It is a long shot but they will regain beautiful colors if you feed them right and not let them starve. Read Coral magazine article ''is your reef anorexic''. it is a good article about low nutrient and starving corals. My red planet is striking, very red and green at the base. I have about 5 ppm nitrates and .1 phosphates, so it's far from low nutrient. The way I see it, the only advantage of a ULN is not having to deal with algae. The inconvenient is pale pastel corals and problem with LPS and gorgonians.

![]() If you're not having exactly the same issue, you might want to start a new thread detailing your particular setup. The advice here may not apply to your tank.

![]() My apologies. I had no intention to hijack or sidetrack. I am experiencing similar issues, perhaps not exactly. Just trying to learn.

![]() Sorry, didn't mean to suggest that you were hijacking (I knew it would come out like that!). Just that often if issues aren't the same, the thread goes in two different directions.
