ah ok that makes sense. I do recall reading that in the book. Guess I wasn't really considering that 2 x 160w 10,000k and 2 x 160w actinic would be not enough light, since at first glance it sounds like alot

are T5s (with more bulbs), a more reasonable solution for the light demanding tridacnids? anybody highly succesful in that area?

I mostly ask because I assume its a good idea to QT tridacnids, would a high intensity fixture be necessary over the quarantine, or can they 'get by' for a few weeks of reduced lighting?


so many things to learn in this hobby that sometimes I fear I have to forget something in order to learn something
