I'll second that.

I think it'll be alright. My frogspawn is doing pretty well in the middle of my 9.5 gallon tank with 2 x 18 PC lighting.

is there any specific water parameters?

I have frogspawn about 15" below a 96w power quad and it does great.

[kennerd]

medium flow and put it out where it will get plenty of light under those lights. (IE: not shaded, and not on the sandbed)

It should work. How do I know this? Simple, I have a 20H with 2x56W PCs and my green with pink tips frogspawn is very happy. I hope you get a small one. They'll tend to outgrow a 20H nano. The biggest issue is our tanks aren't that big and with a frogspawn you need to keep most other corals away from it. The stinging power of Euphyllia is no joke. I let my clove polyps get to close to my torch once as I was moving it and the torch actually stuck to the cloves! I had to pull them off and those polyps havn't opened sinse. They look burned. I have a torch, frogspawn, and a hammer in my 20. I think the frog and torch need to move out soon and I'm looking to trade them. If you really must have one make sure you get a small one, keep it in moderate to low current for full extension, and have it toward the top with direct light. Also don't forget to feed it a couple times a week... even if only for the fun of watching it eat... HAHA. Feel free to ask any other questions.
