For some fishes like red shiner and many danios they look bright and colorful they
look bright green/blue in nets, hands, and in streams but pale in tanks. The blue
or green color wash out in the aquarium but the strong blue/green is still there
since the blue/green glow in shade, when they are hit by sunlight, and whenever
the fish is netted out of the tank. Please give me the proper way to install
light so that the blue/green coloration would show up well in bright tank.
