I will say however that no corals hold the colors that they are acclaimed for under any condition, not even ones from Steve Tyree himself.

You might be mis-reading what I'm saying.
Maybe I should have said EVERY condition instead of ANY. Although that would be equally confusing.
Basically, pop a coral Tyree LE Whahoozits, has been in captivity for 18 years or what not, toss it under an iwasaki 6500k bulb, and another piece under a Radium 20000k bulb, do you honestly think both corals will retain the same color?
Corals can brown out, corals can fluoresce more or less given the right conditions.
