Right now I have 4.4 watts of power compact lighting (for a total of 530 watts) on my 120 gallon (24 inch deep) reef and the corals are doing well but I do want to increase the lighting for aesthetic as well as, what I believe, will be the benefit of the corals in the tank. I have mostly softies like zoanthid, palythoa, clavularia and leathers plus some brains and a pagoda in the tank. I want to add additional power compact lighting...Can anyone tell me what the limit of total wattage of power compact lighting would be for the kind of corals I have on my 120 gallon reef? I don't want to add too much and I don't know what "too much" might be. That would be a big help in deciding what kind of fixture to purchase. Thanks!
