Help on led supplement

[Thehearon8ter]

Ive currently got an ati 6 bulb t5ho fixture over my 90 reef tank and i am looking into supplementing some leds. Im striking out in google for some good led supplements or led strip lights to supplement with my t5 without breaking the bank. Can i have some suggestions and maybe some pictures of peoples tanks with led supplements to t5

What's your budget? A solderless led strip kit from rapidled would give you probably one of the higher quality affordable options.

Forget budget, what's your goal?

A 6 bulb T5 fixture should be able to do anything you need it to. (Except behave like LED's.)

Im wanting to help the neon colors pop more then t5s allow them to

"Pop" doesn't really mean anything, but I assume you just want brighter florescence?

A different combination of bulbs should help. Can you tell us what combo you're using now?

There's a strong set of arguments for switching to LED's altogether, so maybe that's worth considering to achieve the same goal?

It all depends what you want, but you can literally build a new LED fixture with the same plan I used for around the cost of a new set of T5 bulbs.
