Dwarfpufferfish Posted November 11, 2004 Share Posted November 11, 2004 I have a standard 10 Gallon Nano-Reef in the making. After the cycle is compleat I want to start a few colonies of Zoantids. I am making a DIY hood that will have 40watts of Compact Florecent 6500k and 14watts T8 Actnic. So all in all I will have 5.4watts per gallon. I am assuming this will be enough light. Am I incorect?

zzpw3x Posted November 11, 2004 Share Posted November 11, 2004 Yes it will be enough but I think some of the brighter zoos may have poor color. I have 96W over a 10G. Unless I get zoos from someone with MH, the zoos that I trade for are almost always a bit of a pastel color. After they are in my tank for a month or 2 they get much brigher and more intense. I guess I contribute that to my lighting. Link to comment
Dwarfpufferfish Posted November 12, 2004 Author Share Posted November 12, 2004 I decided to get a 70w MH! I think that should do! Link to comment
