I have a 125gal tank and plan on going to a huge fragswap this weekend.
Will my current lighting (4x96watt pc's on a 125gal) support the following:
- tyree sunset monti?
- neon green calustrea?

frogspawn is ok. they dont need that much light. as for the monti, keep him on top w good flow. monti demands a bit less light than acros. people r so mean on this forum sometimes.

I agree that monti still need more light. nycbob he wasn't being mean even OP said it was blunt honesty, you need to be careful.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought about the only things you could keep under 3 watts per gallon are mushrooms, low light zoos, and non photo corals. If I'm reading the original post correct, I wouldn't think you could keep frogspawn in this tank.

With 384 watts of pc's on a 125 you can keep anything except for acros and some high light sps. The monti cap will work if you keep it high, although it would do better under more light.
As far as lps , you will be fine....go for the frogspawn in other words...LOL

Watts per gallon is NOT a good way to determine if you can keep SPS/LPS/Softies/etc.

ya, I'm definitely looking forward to this swap. Right now, I only have some zoos reserved, but will probably get the frogspawn now. Think I'm going to wait on the monti until my lights are upgraded just to be safe.
Everyone, thanks for your input! I'll try and post some pics once eveything gets acclimated
