Is my MH pendant at 175w enough to keep most corals in a 30g tank? It has a 14k bulb currently and i have a 10k one as a backup.

As far as corals id like to keep im not exactly sure. I do like Zoo's, brain corals, acropora corals, the candy cane ones mentioned look cool as well.
Im not the hugest fans of most leathers from what ive seen so far. Same with mushrooms, they dont excite me as much.

The Colt corals and frogspawn mentioned interest me. But the Xenias not as much.

My water params that i test for seem to be good.
Ammonia=0
Nitrite=0
Nitrate=0
PH=8.2
Phosphate= .5

Ive heard that B-ionic 2 part solutions are the way to go and might pick some up

Thanks for the input so far.
