Hi
This topic has probably been discussed before but i couldn't find anything that answers my question.

I'm in the process of building my own light fixture.
As for today I am using two modified Chinese black boxes. It's ok but not great.
I decided to go with a combo fixure that will hold 6xt5 bulbs and 3 100w leds in the middle. The LEDs are just for a little color tweeting and for added shimmer and are not the main light source.. most likely will be operated at 10% or so

I'm looking for the best ATI bulb combination and have no idea where to start..
The other issue is that my tank is a peninsula, so I would like to avoid different shades from front to back..

Ideally, I would love the light to be natural and lively, a little hard to explain.
As for today I have some Lps, softies and some zeos but I really want to be able to grow some sps as well.
Tank is 24x24x40"

Any advice will be appreciated..

How many of each? Arrangement?
C'mon tell me more
 
Just alternate the bulbs 3x3 and put two led strips dominant in blue/violet for bling that you can angle in on the outside.

The leds on the inside aren't going to work as well for bling unless you have a ATI power module with reflectors.
