Skimmer and Lighting question

[reefburnaby]

Hello,

I don't know...I have a torch and a Candy Cane and they are under one 6500K 55W in a 20 gal. All happy and doubling in 12 months. 33 and 96W would be brighter than mine.

From Dr. Ron Shimek on Reef Central, light provides Zooxanthellae with energy so that it can give food to the Corals. Suppose, we feed the same amount of food to the coral as it would get from Zooxanthelae....hey that should work right. Yupe, the food you give corals will be nutritionally complete...not just a selected sugars from Zooxanthellae.

But hey....that is just my humble opinion.
