Has anyone had success growing open brain coral in a deep 28 inch tank?

I don't think watts per gallon are so important as to direct light. I had mine under 150w MH and it wasn't very happy. When I moved to my other tank that had 8T5s and I placed the corner as far from direct light as possible. It then blossomed it puffs out more and more everyday! I don't think these corals are found in shallow water, so moderate light is where they excel. Make sure your feed it at night

Not true... check low tide on any beach reef... - they will be either out of water or under by a inch...
