Hey yall, I'm currently building a 72×24×12 frag tank for sps and softies. I have multiple small frag tanks that I run AI Primes on and they work great. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with larger light fixtures and if they could recommend some. I have been looking into T5/LED combos and also the RB photons.

I have a 72x36x16 tank. One side is a 48” 8 bulb t5 re-wired to be 3 channels, so to speak. and the other side is a modified 32” photon V1 with the lens removed for better blending and spread. Added some uv, mint and a few different blue leds to replace some of the soft whites in it.

All sps, high light nems and such are on the T5 side. Zoas, rfa, and others are on the led side.

It will be all MH and T5 here shortly, just waiting on bulbs and getting a remodel done, so I can move the tank.

Pic for reference.
