    Not so neon green as before :confused:
    How can I get it back to neon green once again? or is it impossible to get the original coloring back

    Also as you can see, the Galaxia coral on the bottom side is getting like no light at all, and theres nothing I can do about it, i dont think, and its dying! well that side is dying other side is doing healthy.
    Any idea what I can do? or do I just watch it die off?

    The lighting angles in the two pictures are different. SO it's hard to see if it has actually changed color. Consider moving it to get those bottm polyps to open up & get more light.

    sorry for the differnt viewing angle. But yeah, they lost their greenness compared from awhile ago.
    I ll try giving the other side light too, would I have to do this every once in awhile?
