Photos of very colorful large-polyped
Blastomussa, Blastomussa wellsi
Acquired late August 2000
Photo taken October 13, 2000
(coral was not present in reef tank when Aug 23, 2000
photos were taken)
The first photo was taken under ordinary daytime tank lighting (6500K
metal halide plus supplemental actinic lighting).
The second photo was taken under just the blue actinic lighting (during
the dusk period after the metal halides switched off for the night) to
show this coral's brilliant green and reddish-orange fluorescence.
