Coral suggestions for high light

[Brock117]

I have a 10 gallon water box with some dry and live rock I was wondering what could I grow on that top left rock that would handle the lighting conditions and how to make dryrock turn live

 

[BYU]

dry rock will turn live with time
you need to know how much par you are getting up there

What do you mean par up there

 

[BYU]

par is the measurement of light
depends on your lights

My Acropora formosa gets blasted with 550+ PAR and still comes out of the water for more. Good candidate for that location.

I just watched a video where my highest rock is the par is about 250-300

You can’t really guess par. Need a par meter to know for sure.

It’s pretty close the video was on the aquaknight and he was testing the par on the same tank as mine 50%white 80%blue and a couple inches from the top was 250 par and right below the waters surface was 320
