It doesn't matter how high the tank is. It does matter how intense the light is by the distance or the wattage. If my 130 watts for the frogspawn at the top of the tank is pushing it bit, then how is 96 watts "plenty"? I'm not saying it won't work, just please don't assume things like that. Different corals have different requirements.

Magic_Carp,
They are about halfway up in the tank in direct light, with the skimmer dumping directly on them, so I would say high flow. How is your PH? They grow fast and I'm going to have to get my butt in gear and trim them again or they are going to take over the tank. What kind of lights do you have?
