Hey everyone, wondering what kind of corals id be limited to in a 75 gallon using 4-48" T5's with a icecap 660 ballast? Maybe a hard coral here and there towards the top? Could i get away with an anenome? Frogspawn? brain? bubble? Thanks in advance

Dennis,
Depends on the depth of the tank. I have found many tanks with t-5 lighting that seem to have great growth and color in their corals. "high light" corals can stay near the top and others will do just fine at 12-15 inches below the water surface. Hope that helps.
