I am running a 125 gal about 24" deep with Current Orbit IC Pro 48" model. Not my first choice but was a gift. Wife saw it in my cart loved the aesthetics if them and pulled the trigger. I love the design of the lights and when running "Blue" corals pop, but I feel that I am missing out.
I am housing mainly softies and LPS at the moment but would like to get into some SPS and Nems eventually.
I am not in a position right now to invest 1k into lighting. I have seen a lot of talk about mixing LED with T5HO. I can get an Aqualife t5ho/led 4 bulb 48" fixture for about $160 without the bulbs brand new. I can also make my current fixture fit it.
My question, is this a good move? If so what light combo should I use? Ive owned ATI before and will probrobly again, thinking 2 Coral+ and 2 Blue+.
If this has been discussed please point me there. I did try searching for similia talks but nothing specific to what i have atm.
