Lighting question

[JM68]

I have heard a lot of different opinions as far as lighting and placement goes for different clams. I have a 120g with four 110W VHOs over it. I keep mostly LPS corals, but recently i have been looking at clams and i think i want one. Can i keep one with this amount of light? If so wut kind is best and where in the tank should i put it?

You may be ok with a derasa or squamosa high up on the rocks. If you can keep sps you should be fine.

i don't keep sps, i keep lps. but thanx for the input.

you should upgrade lighting IMO to maybe a few t5's.....

If you are on a budget you could do like t5's on just a section of the reef....if you cant afford the t5's maybe just 110W of pc lighting with 10k daylights the true key is PAR.....if you dont want to change lighting go with a squamosa

are you saying that PC are better than VHO?
