Adequate Lighting

[Steven Thompson]

I hate how white my current light setup is and just bought the aquaticlife T5 hybrid for this tank. 300dd 72x36x36. I will be putting 3 radions (Gen 3's) in along with the 4- T5 bulbs that are in the aquaticlife fixture. Wondering what everyone's thoughts are if this is adequate lighting. TIA

Assuming those are xr30's and your tank appears to be mostly lps and softies, I'd say you are ok. Really pushing the boundaries on the Radions, but with the t5s and what you are stocking should work.

Yes they are XR30’s. Thank you it is very much a work in progress!

Also anyone have a good 4 bulb T5 combo that will be good with the radions? Thanks!

That will be a preference to what you like visually really. I believe ATI has a video you can find with their recommendations.
