shoakoua Posted June 5, 2004 Share Posted June 5, 2004 Yo bros, Can anyone advises what will be the good corals for bottom placement, and require only little lighting? I only know Sun coral is one of them... http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/prod_Di...d=22&pCatId=517 What about those corals under Fungiidae becos they are usually for bottom placement I think. Does it mean low light requirement? Beside the above, anymore? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuEl Posted June 6, 2004 Share Posted June 6, 2004 Christmas tree worms normally live in sps species like porites. You'll need strong light to keep the sps alive although the worms don't need the light directly. The health of the worms might be directly related to the health of the sps they live in. Suncorals don't mind being in the light or in the shade. The only thing they need is proper waterflow and daily feeding (make sure every polyp gets to eat). Normally people put them in the shade to prevent algae from smothering the coral (esp if your tank is high in phosphates). Being corals that don't utilize sunlight, these corals have less defense against algae that might grow on them in brightly lit tanks. If you have no problem with algae growth, by all means put them under the light.
