So im currently running two ever-grow D120's over my 55. plenty of light i know. But heres the thing, im a zoa and LPS guy and from my understanding i T5's totally rock the growth of those two, especially zoas and palys. so i have a chance to buy a 2 bulb 48" T5 fixture for 20 bucks. Will two bulbs boost my growth a little? any suggestions welcomed!

It'll help out yes. Or just get a 4 lamp unit and call it a day.

lol well, the LEDs are pretty new so theres no way theyre going anywhere! i figure if i can add the two bulb fixture, why not? especially if it helps my zoa and lps growth. what kind of bulbs would you recommend? i was thinking one 10k bulb and one 6700k corallife bulb.

I'll get an ATI blue plus and purple plus bulb. Most coral growth using the bluer spectrum like in the 14K.

+1. This is the combo that is most recommended IME
