Which soft corals for my lighting?

[doc308]

I'm looking to get some soft corals for my nano 24, but I'm not sure if my lighting is enough. Are there any soft corals you guys can recommend for 72 watts (20,000k)? My bulbs are the u-shaped 2-color fluorescent/actinic that came with the hood. Thanks!

also, I'm hoping my lighting can accomodate some green star polyps and maybe a xenia as well as the combo pack sold here that has the shaving brush and a couple of other greenery pieces.

Do you have any daylight bulbs,like 10k,12k,or like 14k.Or are they just actinics?

These Nano full tank setups usually come with power compact lighting. What is the exact name of tank?
If I am correct and you have power compact lighting then you can keep softies and LPS. For some of the LPS that need more light you would just need to place them higher in the tank. Xenia and GSP would do well under your lighting.

I concur

I have a 29 bio-cube that has similar lighting. Xenia do really well in it.
