Purple deaths browned out help

[dirt-nasty-510]

Hey everyone,

I have about 40 purple deaths and they are all browned out. How can I get them deep purple?

Higher light!

I had these in the frag tank under high lighting and they are almost to lite.

You'll know if its too much light if they close up and barely peek out like my picture.

Mine are brownish under 14k MH but BRIGHT PURPLE under my T-5 actinics.

Mine are bright under any light.

I had them in high light and nothing and the babies are dark until they get larger and brown out. There under a 150w phoniex bulb in a 38 gal cube. They should be getting lots of light.

Honestly that's not a lot of light for the depth of that cube. Mine I posted are about 10" under a 250w HQI.

Dam that is alot of light well I will put them to the very top and hope for the best I'll take before and after pics.


Thanks
