So, I'm planning on building a new hood with some MH fixtures+LED in the near future, however I'm not there yet. In the meantime, I purchased some Giesemann Tropic Thunder 6500K T5's. I've also purchased some GE 6500k bulbs. Both sets are 39 Watts. The T5's are replacing a 14k KZs and 10K. All of this is in an Aquaillumination fixture so 4 T5 total. My current lighting is as follows:
1XRadion Gen 4 30 Pro
1XRadion Gen 4 15 Pro
2xGE 6500K bulbs 39 Watts
2xGiesemann 6500K bulbs 39 Watts
Schedule:
AB+ Running at max starting at 1:58 p.m to about 6:30 p.m. T5's go from 1:00 p.m to 7:00 p.m
I'm looking to tweak lights for maximum growth without pushing the LED's too far (don't want to burn corals. I'm about 400 Par in the middle of the tank and 250 at the bottom corners. Growth has been pretty good on most of my acros. Sorry for the super blue pics, I can't take good pics lol.
