Need help with coral color!

[Terri Caton]

I live in Western Colorado and the nearest place to buy coral is 4+ hours away. Thus, I cannot go see any coral in person

I'm trying to find information regarding which corals look the most vibrant in daylight. I know anything fluorescent is bright under blue lights.

But...Daylight? Why can't I find info on this?

I'd like specific names of the corals. Not just Zoas as a category please.

All responses appreciated.

I would contact the sellers and ask for them to take a picture with a light setting more balanced (like a daylight).

I will do that. Thanks.

You can also ask reefers on here for pictures! I am away but I would

Space invader pectinia and chalice are very bright in any normal coral light spectrums ime.

It depends upon the yield of the fluorescence. Yield is defined as light absorbed v. light fluoresced. In the case of non-fluorescent proteins (those that merely reflect light) it depends upon spectral quality and light intensity. I think I have some info on yields, but will have to find it.
