Yea, but you had 96Watts on a 20G.. I have 78 on a 75G.. Slight difference in amount of light per gallon.. lol

Like I said I ran the tank with only 48w ( 1 fixture) for a few months. You could probably do stuff like zoas and mushrooms if you placed them up higher in the tank. Just dont glue them in, so that when you upgrade your lighting you can move them down.
