Is this enough light to grow mushrooms and button polyps?

It's just 2 400 watt halides, 6 t-5's, and an ocean revive led set...lmao

So here's some current shots. Bad pics..my goal is to finally buy a nice camera soon...

It's a work in progress..but slowly adding corals..and so far so good.

Tank has been running for 4 years but I took a long break as mentioned in my other thread due to more kiddies...

Soon will be a thriving sps tank again...hopefully

Hey Paul. How's the corals doing? I think that is plenty of lights for shrooms and polyps.

Is that a single yuma ric to the right?

 

[BigDaddyStar]

Lol...yeah probably microwave them...All is well so far..except for the frag my blue face angel ate of zoas..I thought he was good..I was wrong..there's other zoas in there and doesn't bother them so I don't know but he has to go. Sucks I have had him for years..

How long have you had that light set up going? becareful your leds dont over heat that close to the halides

 

[BigDaddyStar]

Yeah its a bit of a concern..I don't run them together..and the temp actually stays pretty cool since it a hanging canopy...but time will tell if I am wrong..
