Allrighty... Question for the Masses...
This system was set up for no other reason but to hold the contents of my bowfront while I get a floor redone, and a new tank (56 column) set up. Well, it was supposed to be "ugly" and just hold the fish for a while. Instead, I kept going, and going, and going. It's now going to be something that will stay around for a while.
You all know that I've drilled it, sumped it and this weekend, I built a canopy and bought these lights (4X36 inch 39W
T5's):
My question is this. Once I get the 56 going upstairs, what can I reasonably keep (photosynthetic) in this system thereafter? Any SPS? T. Squamosa? I know I can't try and keep Maxi or Crocea without more light.
What do you all think? I've always had
MH and am completely dumb when it comes to
T5 technology. Folks say that even though 4X39=156 watts and therefore 4.1 WPG over this tank, it is actually MORE than that because of the
T5 Technology.
What says thee?
