setting up a cheap 10 gal tank as a SPS frag recovery / new coral QT tank. Currently have a 2 x 24" t5 setup on it. Will this be enough to keep corals alive (if considering lighting needs only) and well for a couple months before adding them to the tank? should I supplement with LED....if so which one? I want to keep these corals healthy and willing to spend the money.

I’ve used the Aquamaxx prism LED on my 10 gallon frag QT and both LPS and SPS have done well and thrived with it. I’ve kept them in there at least 90 days before moving them to the DT. Very reasonably priced light as well
