+cyrus Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 So my Velvet Brain has gone pink under T5's. The automatic response from my fellow reefers should be "Bleaching!" I have placed it in my main tank for the 250w 14K to work some magic. The color is super bright and the brain itself is healthy and retracted at all. It still blows up and feeds. I just hope under the halides it will keep this super pink! You guys think it will go back to red? (Hydro he wouldn't stay outa my shot! lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Hydro Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Watch the foxface you got from me, he was nipping at my open brain corals. Nice coral though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad and Belinda Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 We had a couple of our corals do this in the past, including a brain just like yours. One stayed and the other changed again to yet another color. Seems like they did that when they came under a lot of stress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The T5 dual was clearly not enough for this guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
