crazinezz978 Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 just with softies, you'd be fine with that light.

Mushrooms and Sun coral doesn't require much light so this should be fine. The others will be want more light to grow and looks it's best.
fishbabies Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 What about zoanthids or star polyps? you'll want to increase the light to make them look bright...otherwise they may change color...most often to duller shades. This can happen with shrooms as well. Coralife makes the aqualite mini with a 9w 10000k and 9w actinic for only $29....the colors will be much better
