Who is using JUST T5"s for SPS coral

Lionfan · 02/22/2006, 05:23 PM

I was thinking of switching to 5X54W T5 setup on my 4' 72G reef. Right now I am using 2X175W with 2X54W T's. My question is would 5-54W bulbs be enough intensity for all my SPS? What configuration of bulbs would I need to be successful. How many of the 5 bulbs would have to be daylight to work on SPS? THanks for all opinions....

I've got a friend keeping Digi in a 55 gallon with 4 T5s

You may want to ask this over in the SPS forum.
