I've got an area underneath a ledge at the bottom of my tank that I'm looking to put something. It's not 100% shaded but it doesn't get much if any direct light from my halides. What are some lps that would do well in low light? Thanks

Yup, acans and chalices USUALLY do better under less intense lighting. Same with brains and some of my zoas. Try what you want and you will be able to tell if the coral is happy or looks like it's reaching out for more light!

Go with dendros.....they look great and you don't have to worry about them losing their color.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts. I like the idea of dendros. I think a small group would look awesome.
