Oh, I wasn't "hmm-ing" as in "in your face" Hmmm... I am really "hmm...?" for things that I'm trying to understand here.

Wait a sec... So if they can't effectively catch food then why extend at night at all? I'll admit I haven't read everything, but am wondering why many biologists are saying to feed your corals if you're saying that they hardly eat. I think finicky acros growing as well as staying well colored under a 175mh is evidence that food is an important part of the formula. I think it was David Cripe of Monterey who said that growth structure had little to do with "reaching" towards light, and has much more to do with flow.

Just learnin' here...
