Got any shots like this? I'd like to see some.
 
Lobster: You have a camera that can take pictures in RAW format? These are some I took at the LFS of his coral frag tank under just the VHO Actinic 03 lights, with all the halides and shop lights turned off.

Take the picture in RAW format, then go into Photoshop or the RAW editor that your camera manufacturer gives you and crank the white balance color up to around 48000-50000k. Normally, cameras don't know what to think about things under actinic lights, and pictures can't do it justice like seeing the real deal. :) Remember, your camera is expecting the white balance to be set somewhere in the 3000-10000k range, like you'd see in normal daily life outside. You have to get in there and force it to color it like your eyes see it for real. :D
