Looking for 24" T5 retrofit recommendations and general advice on my lighting. DT dimensions are 23.5x13x16. I intend to house mainly beginner/hardy SPS.

Right now I have two Prime 16s running AB+ at maybe 45-50%. They're still in acclimation mode, working their way up to 70%. I can tell even with the two, I'm going to have shadowing issues. I like the idea of adding a couple blue plus T5s. One on each side of the Primes.

Do you think this would be a worthwhile addition to the Primes? Any brands you'd recommend? Would you do something completely different?
