frogspawn, hammer,fungia and brain corals ???

These corals have really sparked my interest because of how they look, the care and light requirements. My question is whether or not the stock pc lighting and flow in the 24 gallon nanocube is sufficient for them. I will most likely only get one or two specimens but I am not sure if my lights are sufficient. From what I have read, they all are pretty hardy and demand moderate light which i think i can provide.

Thanks for looking

The Euphyllia(sp.) ones you mentioned are fine. Not sure if the fungia or the brain will do under the stock? Anybody care to chime in... The only thing I do know is that you have to feed them once in a while regardless of lighting.

I have a frogspawn near the bottom of a 12 gallon nanocube dx, that has went from 4 heads to about 8 or 9 in around 6 months so you should be fine with the frogspawn.

I think you would be ok. I'm running PC lights on my Red Sea Max and have all of those corals except the fungia. You should be fine.
