12v LED for a zoanthid

[loyalhero90]

Is a 12v LED light with 6500k spectrum enough for a zoanthid? The light slowly dims to blue with an automatic timer to simulate regular day light.

Maybe I should provide more information since each zoanthid requires different lighting and flow.

The zoanthids that I want to get come from a deep water habitat and the information on the website says they need low light with medium/moderate flow.

I won't get all 3 but this is what I was thinking about.

i had a pico type tank in the past were the only lights i had on it were LED's and low wattage ones at that. it was something i put together as an experiment by buying abunch of stuff at radio shack and trying to make my own little fixture.

i ended up using like 10 LED's i think they were only like .5 watts a piece or maybe they were 1 watt. but needless to say i had several small zoa colonies in there that thrived. so it is very possible that will work for you. just remember that different zoas/palys have different needs.
