Right now, you may have enuf lighting for some mushrooms and other soft corals. What exactly do you look forward to keeping for coral?

Well, the post above is what I thought, you may be able to get away with some of the lower light LPS also. Do a little bit of research on these types of coral and you will find what fits, I am sure. You are open to most of the softies, that's for sure. Stay away from any anenomes until you can intensify your lighting. |
