My tank is 56 gallons
Dimensions: Tank: 18"L x 30"W x 24"H and Stand: 19"L x 31"W x 29.5"H

I have, current USA orbit marine saltwater reef LED lighting system

which is 96 watts.

and AquaticLife T5 HO fixture 4 bulbs 24 x 4 96 watts.

I change the T5 HO bulbs to,


Giesemann Power chrome aquablue + 15000k

Giesemann power chrome actinic + 22000k

Fluval power Glo 18000k

and one regular actinic bulb 420/460nm

Do you think that this is enough and good for my soft corals and few hard corals that I have like monti cap, birds nest and purple digitata?

Please let me know what you guys think and let me know if I should change anything! :nerd:

I am not familiar with your LED system but I believe you have enough light.I would position the SPS in the area that has the most light,probably under the LED.I would suggest using less blue,to provide the corals with a more complete spectrum.
