lol but i am not complaining about major lose of color. My green tabling acro got slightly lighter, but in turn my pink birds nest actually became pink. before it was like a dull purple with blue polyps and now its actually pink. But when i am talking about the light being to intense for certain corals its true. at first i set the stylo higher in the tank and the base orange started to go white, so i moved it back down to the sand and the base color came back. now after 1 day of cutting down the lighting the stylo and the green polyp birdnests are starting to gain color again (the birdsnest bleached out during shipping). I know my tank is young but i haven't lost any colonies, just had some issues with smaller frags. no biggy. but this thread isn't about me, more about an informative link talking about photo periods.
