    I am experimenting with how little I really need to run MH's.

    My tank is all softie, with exception of a few gobs of frogspawn, which is very light forgiving...

    One Crocea Clam which have moved up by surface directly under PC's (260 wts over 125 gal). Keeping clam happy was main reason for running MH in first place.

    Substantial coral growth is something I no longer need.

    Am expecting I may not really need MH at all...May be issue with Anems...Will see...:-/

    Even shops that don't have rent payments are going out of business here.
