I read an article named
"Stony Coral Pigments, Algae Pigments and Captive Lighting"
I think Steve Tyree wrote it.
This article is very interesting and has a lot of information.
Here is what I understand after reading it.
1.I am not sure but There are major two types of pigment in Coral.
Photosynthetic pigment(PP), and Coral pigment(CP)
2.The reason that Coral looks brown is Algae pigments,
Brown color is made the combination red and green.
Major components of Algae pigment are peridinin(accessary)pigment
and chlorophyll.
Red is peridinin pigment,green is chlorophyll pigment.Through this
combination, Coral looks like brown.
3. Various color when we look at the SPSs is not because Algae
pigment but because pigments of Coral cell
Is it correct?
After finishing article. There is something I wanna know.
Algae pigments produce the major energy to SPSs, I think If the
SPS is healthy, it looked brown color. I do not know How
The colorful SPS are survived relatively small amount of Algae pigment.
The Reason SPSs looks very bright color is because Algae pigments
are few or nothing in SPS?
Do you understand what I wanna know? I wanna express that you
can understand easily, but My English is not good enough....
