Aquarium Advice Newbie
I was reading an old copy of Natinoal Geographic where there is a topic of certain Corals having a chemical that under UV light, produces a flourescent color. I'm not talking about normal coloring but BRIGHT colors, and different to what the normal daylight spectrum shows. Pictures of a dull gray coral was producing a neon orange color! In open water, scientists have to use very powerful lights with UV spectrum filters equiped on them, but in aquarium uses lights used to accomodate black light posters can work, if it is the right kind of coral.
Just thought I would open a topic having just read this, because with the use of these coral, beautiful night aquariums can be created. It does have to be during the night time for the flourescence really to be appreciated, but if anybody has heard about this and/or has done it, please respond because i'm very curous on this subject.
