How much light do mushrooms/zoos need?

Right now I have a 21" deep tank with only 65 watts pc over it. I was hoping to put some small zoo and mushrooms atop my rocks. They'd be about 6" under the water surface. Would this be alright for these corals? More light? Can they be deeper?
All help is appreciated.
Thanks,
B

more light is better. I went from PC to Atinic/MH combo only to see growth and color get a lot better.

They should do just fine with that amount of lighting. They can even be placed deeper and still have sufficient light. Shrooms are not very demanding when it ocmes to lighting.

I'm hoping to upgrade to 185w pc soon, but that will probably be a month or so. It's good to hear I'm in the clear for now. Thanks!
