Can i keep a RBTA 24g Aquapod

I have a 24 gal AquaPod with the stock CF lights. Would that be ok for a RBTA?

I don't recommend it and you shouldn't. It might be enough for the RBTA to barely survive but I don't think that's ultimately your goal.

But is this a joke? Your current tanks' specs look quite impressive and would be more than adequate to keep RBTA.

Yes, as long as the water quality is good and the parms are stable.

I keep 3 in my prop tank which is a 30g breeder, CF lights are fine for BTA's, just remember to feed it as well, at least once a week

Thanks guys.

Scissorhand- not sure if you meant was i joking, but i wasn't, my main tank would be great for a RBTA, but i don't like nems with my corals. The nano is just gonna be for clowns and a nem and i wanted to find out if the lighing was good enough. Why do you think it would barely survive, seems like jman is not having problems
