    listen to this man because he knows what he is talking about. i regret buying some purple mushrooms in the beginning. eventually your whole tank will be purple including the glass.

    I disagree. although the Coralline is purple the largest perctentage of corals are in the green area. your going to want a coral of every color possible after your green dominats...and purple will be one of them especially if its an SPS. Are you trying to say you wouldnt want to see Some purple Acro in your tank?? Or even Red Gambits I would love to have ..and I love my purple Torch!
