Lighting Question
StringerBell wrote on 11/12/2006 1:55 PM:
The new 192 watts + the old 42 watts brings me to 234 watts for 65 gallons. Is that sufficient for "Moderate Light" Corals? Is it sufficient for a Bubble-Tip Anemone? That's 3.6 watts per gallon. I would not call that moderate light, I would call that low light. When you hit 4 watts per gallon I would then call that moderate light. Ideal is 5 to 6 (I have 6.6) watts per gallon for a nice coral reef. Softies will grow fine under the 3.6 watts per gallon. Stonies will grow, but will have less vigor, and will tend to get ailments.
