I've always was understanding of putting them in indirect light.

I run 2 T5 lights for 4 hours a day, and 2 AI primes that ramp up and then back down.

My question is are my placements acceptable.

Display is 90g, 18" tall. Which when I had acans in my 55g, all seemed well with just the 2 AI primes.

I worried about the t5 light so wasn't sure about placements. Obviously trial and error. Just don't want them 2 shaded. Exception is 1 chalice who seems to do well more mid tank.

The lower the light for scans the better. Low flow low light and chalice I suggest medium light high flow but that’s bad just me
