    I currently have a hammer coral and a ricordia. Along with 2 false percent and an anemone. I'm going to remove the actinic ad go straight with 2 11k bulbs and run reefbriteled 24" actinocs. 3watts per led. That should do the trick!

    I would really stick to softies, mushrooms, polyps, leathers, and corals of that nature. You may be able to get into some lower light LPS, acans, frogspawns and some lower light brains. But not a whole lot more than that. You will be able to keep some montis alive however, they will probably not grow at a super fast rate or keep the color they should have.
