How many watts per gal. for a clam??

[fuzz1974]

Hello, I have 6x65w PC. In a 55 Gal. Is this enough light for a clam?

How would you get 6 PC's over a 55?

I have a current total system w/4x65 lunar lights fans, and a retro in a standard hood that holds 2x65w. And they both fit on the tank.

Well I think you should be fine with less demanding clams like derosa or squamosa. BTW do you have a picture? I am also curious to see how you fit so many lights under such a narrow space.

I can take the pic but the resize program won't downsize it. I'll try to take one.

Thank you. I have wanted to try one but didn't know if the light would be good to go.
