Hi everyone. I am moving into the realm of keeping a few corals and I want to make sure that my lighting is decent. I am planning on having many mushrooms, a few soft corals and maybe some polyps and xenias. My lighting consists of 4-NO 40-watt bulbs, 2-175 watt 10,000k metal halides and 1-175 watt 20,000k metal halide. What does everyone think? Do I need more lighting?
I almost forgot to mention that the tank is a 180 gallon. 6' long by 2' wide and 2' tall. I have about 200# of LR that goes almost up to the top of the tank so I could place corals at different heights.
Thanks for any help.
