Too much light in your aquarium makes your fish lose its color?

Hello guys, Richard here again. As you may have noticed, I am very active on social media sites and I try to absorb all the information that I can from various people that I follow and respect. I also visit forums from time to time to discover new trends and find out what other hobbyists are trying these days, and I often come across some interesting piece of information or a question that really grabs my interest. This happened to me yesterday; allow me to share it with you. In a Korean reef club forum, I was informed that the high intensity of lights in our home aquarium will affect our fish’s (specifically anthias) colors.
This is something that I have never heard of before and I was immediately fascinated. I admit that I doubted the validity of this claim, as I have always thought that it was nutrition that affected the colors of the fish and that it had to be some very intense lighting to have a “tanning” effect on fish. Unable to solve this with my google ninja skills, I went on and asked some of the industry professionals to check out the validity of this claim.

It’s already 2018 and things are moving at a neck breaking pace here in Afishionado land. This year, we will be concentrating HEAVILY on aquaculture and sustainability of the hobby while still bringing you great tips and the latest information on products from the brands you guys love. This week, we are bringing you an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of World Wide Coral’s newest farm. There have been a few videos about this from other hobbyists and youtubers, but nothing like this one. We sat down with BOTH Victor and Lou and discussed everything about the farm. One thing that I learned about Victor while doing this video is that he’s a perfectionist, and you can definitely see it while watching this video. Check it out.  You don’t want to miss this!
