guess is around 7 inches or so~~~

dun place your mushroom too near~~ it will burn them

And place your sps at the bottom , which after then bring it up higher

in order to get use to the intense light~~

or else will experience RTN~~

Hmmm... another 400w user? :)

Welcome to the "PUB's VIP" club! :P

You can raise your 400w to 12" above water and still get a lot of light intensity all the way down to the bottom of your tank.

It is recommended that if you still have LPS because under 400w, raise your lamps higher or put them right at the bottom as it may be too much for some species... they will bleach... so you may even have to put them under shade! ;)

Thanks for the advise,

yeah, I plan to have a mix tank, so would try to shelter the lps , hopefully they can get use to the sudden change of light from 1.5 years of 150W :):P

Well, utilities bill is a concerm, But the beauty of striving sps tank is too attractive to look the other way...

And with the statistics of successful sps tank giving minimum 5 w per gallon(from a book I can't remember the title,the 800w its still consider under the "average" right ight intensity :erm:

I guess it pays to mimic god's creation... ...

I guess there is only one way to find out :)

:thanks:

However, nothing could prepare me for the financial blow I experienced when I fell victim to an online scam. Losing $25,000 felt like losing a part of my identity, as those funds represented not just my savings but also dreams and aspirations for my art. I found myself feeling lost, anxious, and uncertain about the future. In the midst of this turmoil, I began searching for solutions to recover my lost funds. That’s when I came across Digital Tech Guard Recovery. Initially, I was skeptical. Like many, I had read about recovery services that promised the world but often delivered nothing.

They took the time to understand my situation, guiding me through the recovery process step by step.

They were patient, answering all my questions and providing me with updates throughout the process. Their expertise was evident, and it was comforting to know that I was in capable hands.

They kept me informed about their progress and what steps were being taken. I had almost lost hope, but their determination reignited my faith in the possibility of recovery. Finally, after what felt like an eternity, I received the news that my funds had been successfully recovered. I couldn't believe it—I was overjoyed.
