Zoanthids without actinics(pics only).

Anyhow. I want to see everyones stand out
zoanthids and palythoa without actinics. No flash and prefer
not to see saturated blue pictures. I like 20k but I think you
get a true representation of a coral under 10k bulbs or bulbs
in the whiter spectrum. If you want to add a pic with actinics
and without that would be even better. Why? Why
not.

Here is what I would like to know with the
pic.

Bulb type & kelvin and wattage. Thats
it.

14k Giessemann 250 watt de hqi.

I will take pics of the rest of my zoanthids and
paly's when the lights come back on. I do not have actinics on
my tank.

Scott

These should look familiar Gooch.... I got
my chunk from Jerry after Mike brought them back from your
place... This shot is under 10K PC only with the actinic
turned off.

Couple more...

Actinics Off: (I think this one might have
had a flash on too, can't remember, but definately no
actinics)

Oh yeah, I have this set too with actinics
and then with a flash.... (I know you didn't want to see the
flash but on this tank it's a single ballast so it's actinics
or flash, lol) I got these from Miguel at fragglereef and I
think they possibly originated with you? Maybe you can confirm
or deny that report...

Oh yeah and on all these
pictures when I say "Actinics on:" That means a 50/50 mix of
10K and actinic, not just
actinics.

Do you have a picture from farther back
where you can see the live rock/sand or anything else? If
that's only 10K than I would say your white balance might be
off...

OK, I'll play. Here's a few shots of some of
mine. Cheap camara so don't beat me up about it. Lighting is
175W Se MH Xm 10K and 220W PC atinic. All of this is on a 45G
hex tank.

Metallic reds. These look like they are
sparkling under atinic only. I'll have to get a pic of them
one day.

Can you take a full tank shot? There still
seems to be a lot of blue in there, even your sand looks blue
in the last pic of your previous post. . Maybe the white
balance is not set up right. Unless you have blue
sand.

Sweet.

The color in this pic
looks right, not washed out with blue. I don't know what camar
you have or if you can adjust the white balance on it. I can
adjust mine a little. I mostly leave it on auto and it seems
to work fine. The last tank shot you took looks good too, not
washed out with blue.
