i have a 35 gallon tank with about 20 pounds of live rock in it. i just got some more live rock that has plenty of different coraline on it but it is curing. alot of coralin has disappeared. after the rock is cured and i put it in the tank how long will it take for the color to show back up? the tank has been up and going for about 6 months and i use purple up

regular flourscent lighting.
If so thats where the problem is. Coraline grows fast and good but needs moderate light to take off.
I have 150watt MH on my tank and its growing so fast its useing all my calcium up before my SPS can get it,
what size tank is this on.
