Opinion on new setup

[BullDZR]

I am thinking about starting a tank at work and I am thinking about the 12Gnanocube. I know I want to do lps onlly such as acans, echino's, blasto's, etc... Thing is I don't know if I can do it with the light that is stardard or will I need to upgrade the light.

I currently have 2 sets of acans that look awsome under a 250WMH 14K, in a 30G tank. I really like the look of the coral under this lighting.

If I were to go the route of the nano, will the stock lighting do, or do I need to do a 70W retro....

i think those corals would do fine under the nanocube dx's stock lighting but if you were trying to keep any high light species then i would go with the retro kit.

I have two small colonies of acans in a nanocube DX and they do fine, but I do feed them directly too
