Will 120watts LED keep my corals happy and thriving?
New to LEDS and was wondering if 120watt LED fixture will keep my Diploastrea, Leptastrea, Acans, Leather, Xenia and Zooanthids thriving in my 29 gallon? All but the Leather and Xenia are on the bottom 18inches from a t5 HO fixture. Your response is greatly appreciated. Thanx!

What fixture? It comes down to having the right spectrum/wavelength not just watts
