Oh awsome thanks. Is 78 watts of HO T5 and 96 watts of pc enough? In september ill be going 156 watts of HO T5

 

[melosu58]

What size tank?

 

[slitherbomb]

I think that that lighting would be enough, although it may turn brown so it can try to get as much light as possible. I would put it high up in the tank.

Looks to me like a birdsnest coral with the white skeleton attached to the frag plug just my opinion!

 

[classklown90]

Its a 18 inch deep tank and its about midway up. 34 gallon long

Well it is real similar to bird nest. Hate to disagree with mel. But he may be right. Kind of hard to tell.

 

[paulace2372]

Pretty sure it's not a birds nest as they taper off to a much narrower point at the end.

 

[classklown90]

Any opinions on the lighting question? Yea I know I'm the one asking for the I'd but I didn't think it was birdsnest either.

 

[slitherbomb]

Yes, you're good as long as it's high in the tank. I have an acropora under power compacts that's doing great. It's grown a lot in only a month.

awesome thanks. now if only i could get a definite id -_- haha

 

[melosu58]

I have mine near the top but I also have VHO lighting. Your T5 HO lighting is a bit more intense. You`ll be OK with them in the top half of the tank. BTW I`m pretty sure it`s what I said it was.

great thanks for the help
