Default powercompacts or florecents?

So here my question would 4-6 20w florcents be good enough to keep zoos and ricordia or two power compacts?

Hmm? Where are you stuffing all these tubes, Sean? I mean, over what?

To answer your question, for the longest time I had 105 watts of NO lighting over my tank. I kept zoas, leathers, GSP and Snakeskins, Digitata (but up high, and still didn't do very good) condalactus, Lta and a bta as well as various shrooms.

Hope this helps.
