Lighting

[Brian Treadwell]

Hey Guys , I have got another 90 gallon tank that I plan on setting up in a few months , I have a coral life 4 bulb T5 HO with led moonlights , I also have a Odyessea 2 bulb T5 with 2 metal halides and no moonlights , wondering what the oppinnions on this fixtures are and what type of bulbs would be best in them , all bulbs need replacing. Thanks

I would opt for the MH t5
A pair of 14k MH lamps and 2 actinic t5
(Just my opinion)

I prefer LED however, I had a T5 fixture and ran ATI Blue Plus, and ATI Purple PLus
Cant speak for MH as Ive never owned one.

+1. if you can deal with the and power you dont really even need the t5s here depending on height..
