I'm so frustrated. I got a frag of ora red planet from a buddy. I know it's ora because it used to be mine. It was in a tank with really high nutrients and moderate lighting. Moderate flow. Basically I was wondering how it looked so amazing in those conditions. Now it had slowly been lightening up in my tank. It's growing fast for sure. So I moved in lower in the tank. It kept it color. I jsut changed two bulbs and it's really light now. And I'm not sure what to do with this thing. It's one of my favorite coral. But it's really low in my tank. Any pointers.
 
My red planet sits in the middle tank but it lost its colors, it grows fast but it looks more brownish, could my lights be to weak? I have 2 actinics a 6500k and 10k bulbs.
 
I'd say move it up, always takes some time for the sps to adjust to new bulbs but if it's brown move her up and it'll get that nice green/red going. Worked for mine.
 
No its a light pink. With the green base a light green. It's lightening up. Actually it doesn't look bad or dull just too much light.
 
Will survive anywhere really but top tank will be super red middle red snd green bottom more green then red . But takes time to afjust from crap light to good and visa versa
