How much actinic did that take? Look at the coraline, its practically glowing!
You would probably have to run 20k HQIs and actinic VHOs to have it look the same in your tank.

Oh dont get me wrong, its a beautiful specimen. I just dont like how some vendors use so much actinic to bring out the florescent colors of their corals.
"The picture was taken with no flash, our coral are housed under 400 watt 20k XM metal halide"
How many hobbyists use 400w 20ks? I mean you put that under the average aquarists lighting and it will end up looking like your average red shroom, although an expensive ($200 reserve, ouch!) red shroom.
