Hey everyone
I am thinking of having some corals that would survive in normal output lights or stock lights that came with my tank. Is there such corals? I have heard of mushroom corals and polyps that would be ok with my lights. Any particular corals that come to mind? I already looked at the sticky for soft corals. I am just not sure if they are ok with my lights.
Also, I talked to the guy at lfs, he told me I could just replace my flourescent lamps with 10,000 k lamps that they have. He told me my current ballast would be ok. He said it would be sufficient to have corals in my tank. Is this true? I want to clarify the information first before making the purchase. I looked at the wattage of the 10,000 k lamp and it is about the same wattage as my stock lights.
My tank is still cycling, but I want to do my research ahead of time so I could look around before the actual purchase.
Thanks in advance for all the replies
