Hello all just need some advice I have a 4 bulb ho t5 total watts 96. Should that be enough for sps coral my tank is 24×18×20,the fixture is 24 inches. Thanks Walt
 
What brand of fixture ? and what bulbs ? But yes, it would be fine with correct coral placement.
 
2 blue + 2 coral + should do it on your tank
 
I think with ati or aquaticlife along with ati bulbs. I think it can as log that you place the light 7-10" from the water line...i think.
 
I have a 40b with 36" 4 bulb Ati fixture. 2 blue+ 1 coral+ 1 Aqua blue special. Yours is a foot smaller but about the same dimensions otherwise. Yes it will work.

Thanks for the help the fixture is a deep blue. It's programmable it seems to be a pretty good light
