Its simple If you want SPS you NEED t-5s or MH.You will not be able to keep any SPS under PCS.Just keep the lught you have one your tank now.And zoas/LPS and any other softies will be fine.If you want SPS you must get better lights PCs just wont cut it.And stop adding things to your tank that you dont test for.You need to find out the problem why your colars arnt doing well and its not your lights.

man it has to be the lights. cause look my frogspawn, candy, and favia are doing good in my tank. and for a fact i know is that they need much more better water quality then zoas or softies. now howcome those are doing great and my zoas have long stretch necks? all my corals are really close to the lights except the zoas they are half way in between. the lps were close to the lights. except the frog. those are doing great. and now that the favia and candy are in my bro in law tank they got better color. so yea it has to be the lights. even the pic proves it. and the zoas that are in my bro tank dont have such a long neck they all got smaller!
so if you think its the water quality then howcome the frog, candy, and favia were doing great? explain

Zoas are very easy to keep.If there not higher end.Look at your zoas close you might have some pests.Nudis ect.How old are the bulbs?People keep all these corals under pcs and the do great.Its not the lights.Maybe the bulbs are old.

why do you keep saying its not the lights? i just told you about my lps!

the bulbs i think are like 5-6 months old. and no my zoas dont have any little pest or nudis. i look at my zoas really close. and yes they will open but the necks will stretch alot. and they told me that the reason of that is cause the lack of bulbs. and people that have a biocube either upgrade the lights

yea but your lights are better in wattage then mine. my lfs told me that watts do a difference as well and i agree. cause they have a biocube of 29g and there zoas are like mine! stretching! and they have a 14g like yours rebel and those zoas are perfect!

Yes you told me about you LPS.There doing fine and they need more light then your zoas.PCs light bulbs should be change every 5-6 months.If you think its the lights save your money and buy some MH.But all you need to do is change the bulbs. also give your zoas a good dip in RO DI.
