High light softies...

[mille239]

Looking for some softies to place at the top of my tank; (top 6 inches or so); I have 250w Radiums approximately 10 inches above the surface.

Any suggestions are appreciated!

There are many corals that can adapt to high lighting, it just takes time. Slowly move them up in the tank over a series of weeks/months.

Off the top of my head Yellow Fiji Leather and GSP do well in high lighting.

I don't really consider 250 watt Radiums high light by any stretch. Many softies will do great with high light though. Take large leathers like toadstools, sinularia, xenia, and gsp, they will all do well in higher light.

+1 on all counts.

Any of the lobophytons, sacrophytons and sinularias will do great. I keep all of the obove including many different types of polyps and mushrooms under two 14k 250 watt halides. All are doing awesome and growing a lot.
