Default FAQ Review

I did read the FAQ a couple of months ago.

However, in my effort to take my time, I am starting to forget some things.

I think I might be going to slow... I took a month to set, level and fill
my tank lol!



Anyway, to the point.

If I have a 75 gal FO tank with a DSB and "some" live rock in conjuction
with a wet/dry and a crappy skimmer.... Will I need High Output lights or
will NO Fluorescents do?

I think I remeber reading that the critters in the LR needed the high lights
but I cant find that.

Any help appreciated.

Even if you keep corals you don't necessarily need really bright lights.
There are plenty of low light and non-photosynthetic animals wich
will do fine with little light.
