zoanthid lighting

[camfish]

I had a quick question. I have corals in my nano reef with my t5 lighting but would it work if I had zoanthids in a tank with heat lamps with just flourescent bulbs in them if it was like 6 watts per gallon?

most likely not IMO there will be algae problems

Would the algae problem be due to the type of lighting or the amount of it? Because the tank would be pretty bare and easy to clean because it would be a grow out tank not a display tank. Thank you for your reply!

Because of the type of bulb. The color spectrum is wrong for coral.
