My tank looks so blah. What corals could i add to my 60 gal hex? My 2 concerns are: 1) i dont know squat about corals
2) is my lighting adequate?
The tank is deep and I have T5's.
Any other suggestions for color besides corals? Or if you suggest corals whats colorfl and easiest to maintain?
 
Sad to say but i think your pretty much SOL . Hex takes can be a pain to deal with and 3-t5 bulbs isnt gonna get you much. Try playing around with different bulb spectrums... They can make a world of difference
 
I'm working on getting my tank ready to put corals in it as well and am curious what people would recommend. What about mushroom corals? I read they dont need bright light. When people say "low light", what does that mean?
 
Do they produce any slime or whatever it is that some of the corals do? Do they simply filter feed?
