Maximas and light

[BiGBOi]

Would a CSL powerquad 96w PC be enough light to keep maximas up top in a 20g?

Not IMO.

How big is the clam. How close to the light. What type of maxima (color).

T. Maxima require intense lighting and the PC might work but the color will be anything but perfect. I know a 20 gal is short and if you keep it toward the top, it should be ok. I personally like MH for Maxima. IMO

I know that people say and do have clams under 3 to 4 PCs.
