    Agreed, I haven't bleached any montis yet but have succeeded with favias, candy canes, and my trachy which was on the sand 17" down from the water line. I may be bleaching the montis and have not recognized it. I have lowered them though since I noticed my faviids bleaching.

    I got a blue voodoo acro under my 4 bulb T5 in a 55 gallon. Pretty much the same lighting. I have decent individual reflectors and he is doing great more than halfway down. Looks blue and purple with teal polyps. At 18" you can get away with alot imo

    I have an aquaticlife fixture. Not sure if it has "active cooling" or not/ I have to 420/460 bulbs and two 10k bulbs. Should I mix these up? Which bulbs should I put in to give the SPS the best chance?
