Amount of light

[jksteele010]

I currently have a PC w/ 4 65W bulbs over a 21" deep 75 gallon tank. I am curious about the labels for light requirements. Low, Moderate,High and wondering what mine would be considered? I am wanting to get a few LPS like brains, Trumpets, Bubble's etc. Maybe some zoo's. Will my lighting be fine or do I need more?

I agree, but your lighting intensity will change depending on where you place the corals. The deeper you go the less light they will have.

i only have a 16"deep, im just curious aswell what would be a good setup (preferably PC or some type of cheap lighting that can give off high intensity, its 4' long)maybe some more pretty corals i was thinking maybe 4 vhos? or like heaps of PC's, metal halides r way to expensive to run...

This is under a 4x65 PC in my 75G

I moved my mushrooms over to this tank from my 12G Nano because I had this on it

And it had them shriveled up and now they are back to half dollar size from a size like the tip of you pinky. I would say you will be fine for softies and zoas with that light setup.
