Assuie duncan coral question

Jyetman · 09/13/2014, 05:10 PM

Bought a 3 head one large two baby heads. They said not to much light or flow. So I have a 160 Watt 10K LED Razor and placed the duncan at mid level low flow in semi shade under a ledge is this placement okay or do they need direct light?

Mines in good flow full light.

Mine are in full light. To be honest, as long as they are not in one extreme or the other it doesn't matter. Duncans grow like weeds in most any conditions.

I had one sit in darkness for a month when I was on vacation (timer got turned off and the in-laws didn't realize it). It was bleached completely white, but bounced back and now has baby heads galore.
