Questioning AI Vegas and coral coloration

[Hockeynut]

Any one running AI Vegas out there that can chime in to see if the fact that my corals are not colored up as much as I would like could be du to my lights and not nutrition or water chemistry.
I guess I shouldn't really complain I do have nice growth and decent color but I feel I should have better color. Also if you do run Vegas what is your photo period and colors. Thanks

I think I have good colors from my Vegas. I run them from 7 am-7pm 3 hr ramp up & ramp down
my whites are @ 60% everything else @80%

Are the Vegas just blue, royal blue and white? I went with the hybrid because I think LEDs (my own opinion) by themselves do not offer full coloration like MH or T5. Can you supplement the leds?

Hey mike that's similar to the way I run mine maybe I'm just expecting to much. I think I'm going to try to push my bio load a little more, meaning maybe a couple more fish to poop a bit more. I do not add any sort of supplements and don't wish to.
The tank has been running for about a year and a half I just feel my colors are a bit week

They are blue, royal,deep blue, green, red, and white Mike
I was just having this conversation with Edwin yesterday and he offered a couple t5s with ballasts I just don't know how I would mount them with my open concept light bar design.
