My BTA split so I placed the baby in my refugium for the moment. (It's not a baby really, it's quite large). The regugium has a single cree 6500K light (Cruve by Eshoppe). Is that enough light for the BTA until I figure out what to do with it (the baby)?

Thank you
 
I'd say about a bit more than LPS... between a hammer and a monti. More light can be tolerated/ may be preferable by some nems
