Ricordea Florida's under PC's?

[1swtlx]

Anyone have success with keeping Ricordea Flordias under PC lighting. I have a 45 gallon bowfront with 2 x 96w PC lighting.
I see most Ricordea keepers are using MH or T-5s currently.

you should been fine, just make sure your water parameters are stable.

I keep Florida Ricordea under PC's in my 15 gallon, but then again its 130w and in a 12" deep tank. But I also keep Rics in my 30 gallon with 234w of T-5. If they do not seem so like it in the lower parts of your tank move them closer to the light.

Got them in and so far so good. I gotta say I very pleased with divers den as a first time order. The yumas are rather large and I count 13. The largest Ric is bigger than half-dollor coin.

I have several rics in a 30 with 2x96w pc doing fine I keep them about 14" from the light. They grow almost as fast as the ones I have in a 65 with MH.
