I run my T5's for 12 hours and my halides for 7 during the colder months and 6 during the warmer months. I do have a 1/4 hp tradewinds chiller, but it is just a personal choice.

I have no idea what this one is, but it has morphed into this. The polyps are metallic.

I have the ORA as well and they are very different. It was a wild piece I got in March that was yellow with green tips. I have only seen one coral like it and that was at Tongs fish store in the OC when I made it down there for RAP.
