Watts per Gal for These:

[lil_clownfish13]

Hi All,

I was wondering what kind of light requirements people are using for the following corals: (i am at 6.5w per gallon of PC) (20g tank with 130w fixture)

-Open Brain
-Pagoda Cup
-Blastos/Acans
-Plate Coral

Would any of these do really well in that kindof lighting situation? (what would be the best)

Again, thankyou all for endlessly answering all my silly questions!

Tina, im not sure about the pagodas, but I know the blastos/acans will both do fine under that light. The plates and brains will receive differing opinions sometimes. I've seen some needing tons of light and others not much.

The pagoda is the only one that should be as close to the light as you can with your LR structure. The others are fine.

tina IMO THe corals that you have stated would do good in your tank. I find with Pc they loose their intensity really fast.. BUt that is from my exp and opinion.

But other then that you have lots of light there...
