T5 question

[stinkydavis]

As my corals are starting to grow I have noticed that my acros are starting to get a lot of shading and other corals too. My question about t5 since they spread more would adding 4 total 4’ t5 be sufficient? I have an 8’ long 24” deep tank. Trying to decide if running two bulb or one bulb fixture in front and behind the led fixtures would be sufficient. They would be in a canopy but I plan on mounting fangs to the back to suck the hot air out. Thank you in advance very new to T5s but hear they are the best for total coverage.

Yes, 4 bulbs would be much better for your circumstances. I personally love ATI: B+,C+,B+,B+ and run LED (blue and Violet) strips on the outsides.
