coral placement in new tank

One fish

In Memoriam
Hey guys. I just bought some green zoas. They came from a 20 or 25 gallon tank with the orbit metal hailide light. I think those are like single 75w double ended bulbs. I have a kessil 150w. Can I place it at the top of my tank?? :sad2:

Thanks!!!

I have some that like the lower level and some that are mid-high ranged in my tank. All depends, but start small and go from there.
 
Also depends on what intensity your are running the Kessils.

A PAR meter (many clubs rent them) is a good place to start evaluating what the light levels are at different levels in your tank, which helps determine where the ultimate resting spot should be. I fully agree with starting everything on the bottom, and slowly light-acclimating them upwards.
