What are some easy low maintance corals that can live under a 96watt pc light?

[happyface888]

Well I am interested in adding some corals, so what are some easy low maintance coarls that are pretty forgiving for errors? I am mostly interested in softies. I would appreciate a list if possible of all corals that can live under a 96watt and low maintance.

xenia, mushrooms

Dont xenias need alot of light and good water conditions?

leathers and mushrooms are the best bets

Possibly the lps stonies---certainly bubble, which is low-light; maybe the euphyllias: hammer, torch, frog. Stay away from plate. Don't mix stonies with softies: chemical war. But even a few of the lower light sps like montiporas might be ok.

Wow looking awsome there, my tank is a 45g. Could you list out your corals? And what watt is your pc?

Hold on. The coral light/relationship depends on the tank depth. A 96 watt light on a 15 gallon is a ton of light because the tank is only 12" deep. The same light on a 46 is a different story. R

Tank depth is very important... I ran that light on a ten gallon and it kept birdsnest alive, on anything other than that id call it useless. Even still the 96 quads are not worth a darn for corals, pc lighting is not very impressive in any fashion.

Strong lights and they will flourish. I found that mine do best under MH. Currently I have 5 x110 VHO's over a 75g and the xenias are looking really good (finally).
