Yes, all 73 colonies sit about 3-4 inches under the surface of 2X 250 watt 20K radiums and 4X 110 watt VHO these lights are mounted about 6 inches above that surface
 all of my micros are used to very direct, intense 20K light... BUT not all micros that are out there are used to this and must therefore be slowley acclimated... Last month I got an awesome full size colony very similar to Genesis I was stoked! she was gorgeous! and after acclimation I placed this colony right with all of the other colonies.. later that very day when I looked at it all the color was gone and it looked shriveled and brown  AGGG! I had burned it ... now the colony sits at the bottom of my tank slowley healing for a gentle acclimation and climb back up to the top... minus about 50 polyps

Not exact But a shot #1 Purple Haze or maybe one of the Jokers #2 Actinic bathed Taffy / Paradise perhaps? pulled in Angle eyes? #3 Jawbreaker? Afterburner? Nah prolly not too much blue #4 Love N Hate? Blazin Cherries? Strawberry fields? Best guesses from this Micro noob Other guesses gang?

It grows pretty fast, at least I think so, although its the only one i have had. I cut a 4 polyp about three months ago, and it now has 8 small polyps growing under the edges of the larger polyps. A lot have grown on the colony.
By the way I dont have a complete top 5 list , but Eden is definately on there.
