mAriNe_enthusiast Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Most would suggest the brightest lighting possible tat is within ur budget. But ,from personal experience, PLs(55 watts) shd be sufficent for most corals( mushies, butoon, corals and oso some LPS). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
