    I have no idea on the lighting. There was some volunteer's there, but they couldn't really answer my questions. They just said it was "a powerful lighting used to mimic the natural environment". The coraline was natural, you could see where it was starting to spread to other rocks. There was another tank that had the blue and also yellow coraline. I was SO jealous.

    Yep. I almost didnt believe it either. I asked if it was paint or artificial and they went into a coraline algae rant. You could tell it was coraline though. Exact same stuff as our purple, but blue.

    i dunno dude, im still skeptical, ive never heard of the blue before and that picture is missleading, almost looks too fluffy to be coraline...:confused:
