Chris,
I see what you mean regarding the color and can only imagine what it looks like in person.....I will definitely let you know when I am ready for building something like this on my pico for my office.

Over the past 2 months I've only had the lens on the whites, for a change I put lens on half my blue's as well.
So now i have lens on 12 whites and 12 blue, and 12 blues w/o lens. I notice a slight reduction in shimmer that's it, i'll watch to see if the corals like it or not.
