t5?or leds? do you know hamy much par?

I can't say exactly how much par, but it is approximately 24in away from gen2 pro radions that run nearly full blast for 5+ hours daily, off to the side of the beam but not in shade.
 
Picked this up from a local dealer today. The original colonies have started to work together and this is one of his frags of it. My first chalice hopefully it thrives.

They get really big eventually. But it takes awhile, 2-5 years for a frag to be a big monster colony. Some grow quicker. They are generally pretty easy to keep with good tank maintence and stable levels and proper lighting. They can sting corals around them, sometimes decently far away, 6 inches or more depending on the type. So just place them away from other coral or downwind flow-wise.
