I doubt it was the light. I have deep water acros about half way up my tank under 400's with no problem. I have seen them at J&L right under the lights with no problem. They seem to handle light just like any other acro.

I guess your species could have been different though.

I have one mounted to a rock on the bottom of my tank under 250w MHs that has coloured up FANTASTICALLY since I got it. (From a dull tan/yellow to a velvety turquise sheen over yellow) It was the last one from JL's new & noteworthy deepwater acro special a couple of months ago.

Keri i think you either got an A. multiacuta or A. Suharsoni, not sure if the spelling is correct but those are some of the most common deepwaters at JL

Ahh! A picture is worth 1000 words! All pics under 2x250w MH 10,000k + actinic except very last pic is in the dark w/flash

When I FIRST got it (ugly tan yellow sticks....but I saw potential)

A couple of weeks later (ooh! good things are happening...)

And Now (I don't remember how long I've had it, can't be too long, 2 months?)

And one shot of the amazing PE I get from it at night (taken with a flash)
