lol on my wicked frag order we needed an extra $25 to get half off for shipping so i paid it and told dave to suprise me and thats what he sent me. Its actually doing good and its been 2 weeks, just lost a bit of color. I test my water every second day, lose of color for sure is due to the light. I moved the stylo higher in the tank for a day and the light basically cooked it, its back down in the lower part of the tank and color has come back.

It's interesting. We put very high intensity bulbs over our tanks and then we turn off the lights
I have my 50 gal with just one 14000k 150MH over it. There's lots of light for my SPS and I can run my lights all day. That way I can actually enjoy "seeing" my fish and corals

My current tank runs at 6 hours, better results than I've ever had, color-wise. Growth is not a concern, I actually prefer less growth.

Really think you have your issue misdiagnosed. Just my opinion though.
