Hello fellow Reefers. I am looking for some lighting suggestion for a 120gal 48x24x24 mixed reef. I plan on keeping softies and LPS. I might add a few SPS down the road. I currently run 4 T12 VHO super Actinic bulbs but I'm thinking about switching to 4-T5 bulbs. If I go with T5's do I need to add reflectors to my canopy? I also plan on adding 1 or 2 Kessil lights. I'm considering the A160we or A360WE for the shimmer. Any suggestions?

TY

Just take out a mortgage on your house to finance a couple Radion G5s
