Ricordia Placement
Howdy!
I have a quick question about placement of Ricordia in my 50gal FBH. I am running the 48" Tek 5 T5 lighting system (6x54watt T5 bulbs). I have been trying varying levels of placement of 2 different Ricordia frags and was wondering if anyone has an advice on whether they should be near the top or more towards the mid-lower half of the tank. Thanks! |

I keep them them anywhere from 6" to 24" deep under 8 54w t5. They do fine at all depths, but color is better at the mid to lower range.
