However, when I move it in front of a lighter background, it looks like this:

I think the additive property is blending with the background, is there a workaround to make the effect look like how it looks on a dark background, without using a different shader?

I've looked at this question: How can I achieve a good fire effect with alpha blending and particles?How can I achieve a good fire effect with alpha blending and particles? but I'm not sure how I would execute that in Unity.
