    BTL,
    I would say on a scale of 1-10 they need about a 5. I'm sure this doesn't help you much so how about you telling us what you plan to do and we can go from there. I have kept shrooms and softies under 4x55 watt PC's in my old 55 and they grew very very well. I now have a 150 gal tank with 900 watts of MH lighting and the PC's, the shrooms don't look as good as they did in the 55, I have one small red sea xenia in there and its doing fine.....

    I'm going to see if I can move this thread to the reef forum

    I would agree with Mark, they will do good under low (by comparison) lighting.

    P.S. - Moving over to the Reefs forum.
