coral and lights

[newfishguy]

I just got some pc lights and am going to get some coral very soon. How long do I need to keep the lights on each day for the coral?

12 hours. How many bulbs and what size tank are we talking about here?

From experience research what coral u buy. PC lighting is not strong enough for a lot of dirrent coral. WE found out the hard way $$$$.

Yeah I know. THis is only for a small tank that will have a toadstool leather and a few others.
