Kessil H80 flora for zoas

[Cflow]

I have a kessil h80 tuna flora that’s I’m currently using for my fuge. I will be moving out of state soon and plan on keeping my zoanthids in a small AIO tank. I’d prefer not to buy another light. The kessil does have a blue spectrum. Think it’s possible to keep my zoas with this light or will I have to do something else? I will also have one fish too.

I think the zoas will probably be fine, but it will promote algae growth and not be great to look at. I would maybe buy a cheap Nicrew or aquaknight. Personally, I don’t see the point in keeping a tank if it’s not nice to look at. edit: a PAR 38 bulb and a cheap fixture would be less than $50.

Is that 18 watts? How tall is the tank?

Pretty sure it’s 15.

I can grow a lot with my three A80s in this 20-gallon AIO… but again, for adequate spread there are three (3) of them. Hope that helps.

His is the a80 flora though. Not sure it has the correct spectrum for coral

I think it is the “Tuna Blue” model. Whatever THAT means. Lol.

It’s 15watt. Yes it’s the H80 so really meant for algae. It has a blue spectrum which to me looks almost like a 12-14k. Very dim thought. It’s really meant to just keep my zoas alive until I get my bigger tank setup. The tank is like 12”x8”x9”. Just a holding tank.

Here it is fill power on the “blue spectrum “ over my 18” deep tank, maybe 2” off water. Don’t have a par meter
