So I recently inherited a nano tank from a friend that has been up and running for about year now, and I decided to buy some soft corals and replace some of the live rock. I started off by purchasing some new lights to support soft corals, the Beams Work 1w LED x9 which has six 10000k daylight bulbs and 3 actinic 460nm. The soft corals I purchased were 2 frags with zooanthids, one with zathenia and what they called a leather? I'm not sure what it was. I also got two other frags, one with button polyps and zooanthids and a small free frag with that looks like a type of grass almost. Anyways, this is my first saltwater tank, and I want to do it right. So my questions are:
Are the LEDs strong enough for my soft corals? And are my button polyps (which are overshadowing my zooanthids) two close to one another? I can't separate the buttons from the zooanthids on the same frag but I can move them away from the other frag. Advice on lights and placement of my corals would be greatly appreciated thanks all!
