Is 4wpg VHO enough for LPS corals?

[TheChad]

Hey all,

I have a 55g tank with 2 VHO Lamps, which is equal to 4WPG.

Is this enough to keep LPS corals?

Right now I keep a few soft polyp corals which are all very happy and growing, I know SPS corals take require MH lights, but What about LPS?


Thanks,

Yes that should be enough to keep most, if not all LPS. Good luck!

I agree, LPS can handle a wide variety of lighting, I think you'd be just fine.

I agree it shouldn't be an issue with most LPS. Don't forget about your coral's flow needs also

I have less wpg then you and have many LPS and soft corals. You will definitely be OK.
