Yeah doc! Those two (BJ and Koosh) are growing very fast! I fragged the koosh already because it was getting too big for one frag plug (haven't figured out where I am going to mount one of em!).

Hey there, what do micro do when they are sunburnt by the light or too close to the light? do they lighten up? I noticed darker rings forming around the polyps on my red micro, but they went away I think because i moved it elswhere. What would cause that/ more light or less. Im afraid im too far or too close to light and cant make up my mind,.

IME it just varies. For the most part, micros like alot of light.

Delight is on target... It varies by morph some will darken and some will lighten... I have found that the most reliable indicator is as in all corals extension good extension = happy coral. Since you metioned it was red... I have found the reds to darken when they begin to burn and the green in them just goes away almost until they are ugly brown... Depends upon where the micro came from but I would start low and raise it 3-6 inches each week until it can tolerate the very high light... I also have found that for some reason T5s will more likely burn them than a MH??? Dunno?
