Will zoas do ok under a 6500 spectrum light

[gorey]

I want to grow some out in my sump, will the 6500 bulb be ok for this?

They will grow faster under that than any other bulb but the color will be almost non existant. Under 7k is growth inducing for zoanthellae (sp), yet not condusive to color enhancement or flourecense. Hope that helps

+1 for a grow out section it will be perfect.

Do you mean 6500 kelvin halide or like a spiral bulb used for refuges?

It would be a spiral bulb...Will it stll be ok? I have a leather in there that is doing good right now.
