Lighting enough?

[fish042099]

I have a 1.5 gallon glofish cube, I believe it has 9 LEDs. Would it be enough to keep corals?

What kind of leds? Are they little dinky LEDs like what you would find in a radioshack or are they high power LEDs.

That's basically my question...you can google 1.5 gallon glofish tank if you want look it up

You want other people to Google your fixture for you to get the specs and tell you what it will support? Sure, I'll get right on that.

no i want to know if they are cheap leds or good ones....it says high power blue leds

if its for a glofish tank then NO in no way would it sustain corals.

let me put it this way, even the reef capable marineland double brite leds barely take care of softies.

.06 watts. Most moon lights are brighter. Put a standard lightbulb over it

Low-voltage LED's for a Glofish tank? I agree with pnavarro. Not a chance.

I've seen people keep some coral in a tank that small using something like this though. But at the end of the day, in a saltwater tank that small, light would be the least of my worries...
