I have a coralife 29g biocube set up completely stock. Stock lighting, and only the return pump as flow. The corals I'm looking to pick up are zoas, mushrooms, acans and pulsing xenias. Is the stock lighting good enough for the acan? And is the return pump enough flow for the xenias? I plan on picking up a mp10 in the next few months and will up grade the lights if necessary. Do you think I'll be good or should I hold off on picking up corals until upgrades are made?
 
Isnt the lighting already a build in LED? I would add some mushroom and zoa and see how they do before adding anything else. If your planning on upgrading then upgrade then add the corals.. Why have to acclimate them twice!
