I finally upgraded my lights a little. I now have 260 watts on a 92 gal.
Not a whole lot but hopefully enough to keep some mushrooms.
Do you think they would do ok?
Would anything else do ok in a low light tank?
 
don't expect much growth. Your colors won't show true. Even if you double your lights you would still be on the low end. so you see how low you are really.
 
Mushrooms will do OK and be real expanded, I personally wouldn't recommend anything less then a 6-8 bulb T-5 set-up or MH for a tank that size. Assuming what you have now is PC lights. You could get Dendros or any other coral that is not photosynthetic as light does not matter to them and most thrive in low light conditions.....
 
Which are non photosynthetic?
Dendros? Can you tell I am so new to the whole coral/polyps/shrooms thing?

Will they grow at all with the lights I have ?
And yes what I have is PC lights. i would like to eventually add one of them MH that you clip on the side of the tank but just dont have enough money saved up yet.
