Ricordia Lighting..

[windlasher]

I just ordered about 10 of them. I want to do a Ricordia garden but am unsure where to put them.
My placement choices are:
In the 220 at the bottom with 20,000K MHs and 4-96W CFs.
In a 90 with 6 T5s
In a 40 Breeder with 4 T5s.
Also, should I dip them ? For how long?
Thanks folks.

What kind of rics are they?? Yuma or Florida??
I have found the Yumas like a higher light and the Floridas a lower light.

check out jpa0741's shallow reef in wall thread... he did a ric garden in a 16in tall tank and he's got em under 3 250 watt halides and a BUTTLOAD of actinics and they seem to be doing pretty good
