Start out slow with them they will burn your corals

What percent for a 20" tall tank and all softies. Acans. Mushrooms. Frogspawn ect...

Shoot I bet you could start at 20-30 percent mine are 16" off the water and I started at 35 percent and was still growing sps!

Agreed! What you recommend running the lights on? I have a 40 gallon breeder and it's about a foot above the tank.

Start low. Start at like 25-30% and go up 5% per week and watch your corals closely. No way you'll ever get to 100%.

 

[Craigar]

Star at 25-30 percent go up 3percent per week till you get to 65percent then after your stocked and don't foresee many more additions go up 3 percent every other week till you get to 100 and then watch your corals florish
