Favorite Tenuis in daylight

[Rick5]

I take it you are against the "daylight only crowd" lol. I am not in this category was just curious of people's favorites in this topic.

Not at all. I’m just trolling @Chaswood79. Historically, I’ve liked a 14k to 18k look with MH or T5. I’m presently running a Radion G5 Blue which is probably much bluer than 14k.

SCOP is superior to all Tenuis in white lighting, my opinion.

My frag of TSA Rainbow Fusion is catching up, though

And WD always looks good in daylight

Very nice. That TSA looks like it is going to be great, nice shades of blues and greens.

Tyree Superman, Sexy Corals Orange Passion and Homewrecker all look good in 14k Phoenix Halides.

There are fakes of the Tyree Superman, but the OG is really nice.

I was going to add Tyree Superman too, but @jda beat me to it. Most intense blue I've seen, better than OT and HOTO even in my tank. They are more of a dark blue, Superman is more of an intense almost glowing bright blue. Not knocking those other two at all, they are just a different shade.

Definitely agree with SCOP, Homewrecker, and a properly colored WD.

Couple others not mentioned are MattV Pacific Wave and CC Kombucha. They are probably the two slowest growing tenuis I've experienced, and seem similar in skeletal structure and polyp characteristics. They have a nice purplish blue to the tips I havent seen in others, kombucha is almost indigo.

I am a sucker for truly blue corals, and I have to say that the filtered tenuis photos online are such a massive disappointment. Very few of the "high end" tenuis seem to have any actual blue pigment in them when you see them in reality. I dont normally wear orange glasses and most of my tanks dont have any "blue" period.

I know its an old post, but holy crap you're not kidding with the superman tenuis being more blue. I got a chunky frag from Lazy Corals and man is it bright, almost hurts to stare at it. I am also a sucker for blues.

I also just got a JF Jolt and its a nice blue under full spectrum as well, much more of a soft baby blue.

This was from an older tenuis thread that I had saved in my phone. Posted by @conchreef. He had it under Reeflux 12k.
