Default Cool Under Actinics?

Horn corals look cool under a black light. Horn corals
need some space, as they like to send out digestive
threads. Looks neat under a microscope. Looks like rolling
stomach lining.

hi,

I got my new 192 watt Coralife fixture yesterday. It wasnt everybody`s first
choice `round here, but it`s right for me, thanks for your input.

My Mushrooms were already doing pretty well, but in less than 24 hours under
the new light they have certainly perked-up. They also look awesome under
the actinics.

What are some other fairly pedestrian Corals (oxymoron,I know) that will
similiarly glow under the actinics. I`m using all 3 fixtures now, so my
Wattage is about 4.25 per gallon.

Are there fish that also shine under them? I read a post here that the
Banghai Cardinals look good in the actinic light?

Once again, thanks for all your help---so far, so good with the tank.
