ok what size tank? what kind of corals do you want to keep?

 

[mopar9012]

29 gallons....umm i guess polyps, sun coral, mushroom polyps, carnation, etc...

As long as you have approx. 4 watts per gallon you can put almost any coral minus hard corals which need mh lighting. This is what I've been told by a number of stores. Hopefully that helps.

I'm not trying to hijack the thread, but my question is about the same in regards to lighting. 96 watts PC over about 10 gallons. about 14" wide, 10 inches deep, and about a foot tall. What could I keep under this lighting?

With 96 watts over a ten you could keep anything might be too much for low light corals
