I am going to be picking up a Fiji Yellow Leather this weekend, and I just want to make sure I have enough light for it. I have a 150w MH 14k bulb. I was thinking of placing the leather around 20" down from the light, I have a perfect spot for it there. I could put it higher but I would need to move stuff around and would rather avoid that if possible..

So basically, will it do ok with my lighting at 20" from the light (about 16" from the surface of water)

Sure, thats is fine,,,,Just make sure you are turning up the flow....These guys do alot better with high flow....Treat them as if they were almost a stony, if that makes any since at all.......
