    Any softies, such as mushrooms, and most LPS. I have had good luck with Frogspawn, bad luck with Xenia. Also the best luck with 50/50 lamps.

    I agree. Just about any softie and most LPS will be fine. Candy canes, euphylia, brains, favias, mushrooms, zoas (some of the higher end ones may not show full color under CF, but they will survive and grow IME) leathers, the list really goes on and on.

    Stay away from SPS and clams. Anemones are hit and miss with this lighting. I have heard of people keeping bubble tips successfully under them, but others probably won't survive.
