T5 Lighting Set Up

kube · 01/10/2009, 08:57 PM

hi guys,

i recently bought a 125 gallon tank, 6 feet long and 23in tall

I want to salvage my lighting off my 55 gallon tank, do you think this is a effective set of for soft coral and maybe lps, tank has been up for over a year and I'm more interesting in keeping fish and my GBTA that i already have. The tank is 6 feet lond each cell in the picture represents one foot and each color block is a lamp, also 4 of the 6 lamps will be over driven with an icecap ballast.

So what do you think or any suggestions?

Which would be better A or B ? of course keeping any light demanding creatures where the lights over lap

I'd go with B and keep the corals in the center.
