liquid8540 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 I started a 10g nano 3 weeks ago and my tank has cycled. I have current usa led lights on it and am wondering what kind of coral I can get with these on my tank. I have 2 turbo snails, 2 blue leg hermits and a blue damsel in the tank right now Link to comment
yousaidreefer Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Not familiar with those. How many watts total do you have. I assume you have a mix of white & blue? Link to comment

yousaidreefer Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Well... I have a 12 gallon jbj nano cube that came with about 12 watts of leds in the lid. I could keep and grow softies pretty easily, mushrooms, Xenia, zoanthids, etc... basically anything without a skeleton. I added some favia, a frogspawn, and acans and they didn't do so well. They didn't die but colors were off and no growth. I removed the stock lid/led and bought a 60w maxspect nano led light and now everything is growing with good color. So long story short I think you're stuck with softies unless you get a more powerful light. Link to comment
