Less than a month later, the octodes has colored out (and I think grown a bit), showing a nice deep purple color under 'daylight'.

Hope this helps somewhat in what to expect!

Thx for the info....
Will it look blue only under some combination that involves an actinic or will it eventually turn blue even under daylight alone ?
Reason is I right now have it and other macro under 2x24w t5 10k/purple. Wonder if I should replace purple with actinic?
Thanks!
